Subconsciousness

In my contemporary paintings, one can see a myriad of influences and technical practices coming together to generate a space that exists as an expression of both the natural world and an imagined or spiritual realm. My artistic purpose is to create imagery that may serve as a path to enlightenment. These luminously bright and cosmic paintings seek to inspire self-awareness and knowledge, leading to a sense of purpose and happiness. Each image communicates the wholeness of human experience and can be understood as an exploration of our symbiotic connections between soul and body, for these two forms are inseparable. We humans are all souls with bodies, not a body with souls.
These new paintings express the human journey of coming to earth to achieve lessons and evolve in the spiritual realm. In the depiction of figures within abstracted radiant imagery of light, color, elements, and dynamic pattern I respond to the truth that all of us, and all things around us have their own vibration and as such we are all connected to each other. The work functions as an expression of the tension between the physical lived world and the intangible, e.g., the invisible but ever-present connections between the living world and the universe.
