Statement
As an abstract/contemporary artist, I seek to explore the limitless possibilities of color, form, and texture to evoke emotional and intellectual responses in the viewer.
My work is a reflection of my own experiences, thoughts, and feelings, as well as a celebration of the beauty and complexity of the world around us.
Through the use of non-representational forms and a variety of materials, I strive to create a visual language that is open to interpretation and encourages the viewer to engage with their own imagination and sense of perception.
My process is intuitive and experimental, with each mark, gesture, and layer building upon the last to create a unique and dynamic composition.
Ultimately, my goal as an artist is to create work that is both visually striking and emotionally resonant, inviting the viewer to engage with the artwork on a personal and visceral level.
Whether through bold color contrasts, subtle shifts in texture, or unexpected juxtapositions of form, I hope to create a sense of wonder, curiosity, and possibility in those who encounter my work.
