I am an artist working in the SoWa Art + Design district in Boston’s South End. My paintings originate in clairvoyance – images and compositions come to me when my mind is in a meditative state, well before engaging with the canvas. I see a picture of the artwork – the colors, composition and all other elements of the painting in my mind before I pick up a paintbrush. My paintings explore ideas related to connections – our connection to oneself, each other, as well as our connection to the environment. White is an important color in my work. It represents white light – the positive light, love, hope, peace and spirit within us.
