Figuration and abstraction empowers my to visually express my life experiences. I view the body as an instrument to be played, distorted and defined through various colors and patterns.
The portraits I create serve as internal and external self-portraits reflecting my most inner being. I consider the mechanics of life and art to be similar. Life situations have the potential to trigger a range of human emotions. Grey tones represent calm while color signals chaos or something uncontrollable.
With my work it is not necessary for viewers to rationalize what they feel about color. I strive to create an organic experience that elicits an immediate emotional reaction.
