Through painting, I enter a meditative state where each brushstroke becomes an exploration of my inner landscape. My work emerges from intimate encounters with nature – the shimmer of light across rippling water, the rhythmic patterns of coastal tides, the textural complexity of weathered stone. I build each painting through countless layers, then selectively reveal their history by scraping, sanding, and dissolving – much like how time and elements shape natural landscapes. By working in abstraction, I translate sensory experiences into emotional landscapes, letting intuition guide each layer’s evolution. Each painting eventually asserts its own direction, becoming a collaboration between artist and medium. My goal is to create works that resonate with viewers on a visceral level, inviting them into their own moment of meditation and discovery.
