“A successful non-representational—or abstract—painting speaks in a language beyond words, one not always easily defined or fully understood. It evokes a visceral, emotional connection—a 'felt sense' of something honest and inherently true. Each time I create, I strive to tap into that truth, challenging myself to grow, to explore, and to reach a place of discovery. Through this process, I aim to share something new and meaningful with the world around me.”
