Artist Statement
A blank canvas can be transformed into a pulsating two-dimensional surface that draws the viewer into another realm. From my earliest days of painting,
I have been intrigued by the mystical qualities of color—as a powerful communicator of emotions and as a window for introspection. My geometric-inspired canvases evoke psychological and spiritual themes through a painterly exploration of color and space that light up the canvas to create joy.
