Description:

My work is dependent on design fundamentals: form, color, and composition. I believe the most complex emotions can be evoked from the simplest of forms. My style explores the relationship between man-made structures and the natural world; the idea of recognizable shapes and structures living within irrational thoughts and emotions. I begin a piece very spontaneously and become more detailed as the composition starts to show itself. The first layers are the most erratic and freeform, similar to automatic writing. I notice different characters and forms in the middle of the process, which I then nurture and allow to develop almost at their own will. My color theory, which seems to be the most immediate aspect of my work to the viewer, is very instinctive and unorthodox. Non objective abstract art is difficult to fathom, and this keeps the viewer interested. As an artist, I am intrigued by this idea.
