Artist Statement
My painting is a part of my soul, bringing together the emotions, memories, and sensations I have felt in front of various things, such as my wonder for nature. My art expresses what I have experienced and transformed by my emotions. The colors harmonize and blend together as I work in cohesion with the water, accepting what it gives me and bringing it elsewhere to evoke animate or inanimate objects, impressionistic or abstract forms.
