Abstract

For those of you who have been here a while, you know my work has been constantly evolving, driven by my love for pushing boundaries. I’ve explored themes of light, water, and negative space. My biggest revelation has been my fascination with the viscous nature of acrylics, which has taken me down quite the rabbit hole. This cellular journey has defined me as an artist, making me feel like I have truly arrived. My work now embodies the fluidity and complexity I strive to convey in each piece.

Embracing change is evident in my work, as it is in my life. I’ve been through unimaginable loss, and my journey quickly transformed from something I knew I was good at to a mission of self-discovery and connection. My art infuses personal experiences, giving me a voice and gift to share my story, touch hearts and challenge perspectives. Often feeling like a vessel, I believe art can transform lives and going full throttle, since my twin passed almost six years ago, has given me a new zest for life and led to my mindset, "one ticket energy."

Through my art, I embody resilience, demonstrating how creativity can shine even in the darkest times. I am captivated by the power of colors, shapes, and abstract forms, exploring how they touch hearts and challenge perspectives. I love experimenting with fluid acrylics, often incorporating materials like 24K gold, 3D printed forms, and resin.

Themes of light, water, and negative space are central to my paintings, profoundly influenced by my studies in China. This pivotal chapter in my journey shaped my artistic development, transforming my work into a tool for growth and discovery, and igniting my love for travel and experiencing all walks of life.

In today's challenging and uncertain times, my paintings offer peace and tranquility, reminding us of nature's power and the importance of connecting with our emotions. They represent a journey of self-discovery and finding the light within. As a Pisces, water is a recurring theme in my work, symbolizing the depths of our emotions and our capacity for transformation.

Negative space is another central theme, representing our innate goodness, capacity for love, and ability to transcend difficulties. Through my work, I strive to spark introspection and self-discovery, encouraging viewers to question my process and contemplate deeper aspects of existence and identity.

I believe art can transform lives, and I am honored to be part of this tradition. My mission is to use my craft to make a positive impact and contribute to a better world.

If you'd like to join me on this journey, I invite you to explore my available works or connect with me on Instagram. I would be grateful for the opportunity to connect with you and share our creative paths together.
