Statement
My art is a projection of my feelings and emotions through lived experience. Every brush stroke is a representation of my inner self; every touch is a reflection of my state of mind. The colors that i choose stamp from a burst of energy and are entirely the work of my imagination. It is a fantasy world that is eager to create where beauty prevails.. I am surrounded by beauty and my pieces passionately depict emotions human beings experience through their day to day interactions. I tend to apprehend human relations by focusing more on color motion than facial expression. It's all about externalizing my feelings, as well as reflecting to others, moments they can relate too.
