A Visual Interpretation of Natural Systems
Smile For The Camera
Smile For The Camera
My newest series, "Smile For The Camera”, is the combination of a love for black & white portrait photography, film, and the use of obscurely shaped lines. This results in a photorealistic image of the character when viewed past a certain distance. With each step you take towards the canvas, the image becomes more and more skewed. Each image I choose is meant to capture a moment in time from the film that I feel contains a respective portrayal of the characters emotions and journey. Each piece can take up to 100+ hours.
The Fourth Phase
The Fourth Phase
"The Fourth Phase" takes inspiration from the fourth phase of the hydrological cycle, precipitation, to showcase the significance of water in our world. Water is not just the subject of my work, but also a key component of my artistic process. I let natural systems guide and shape my creations; surrendering some control of the creative process to allow for the fluidity and energy of water to shine through.

"Surrender" is a series that explores the beauty of fluid dynamics through the use of centrifugal force to create unique paintings. This innovative approach results in a mesmerizing display of patterns and hues that highlight the fluidity and unpredictability of the natural world. The use of centrifugal force allows for an organic, spontaneous process that captures the essence of fluid movement, producing one-of-a-kind pieces that showcase the power and beauty of nature. The end result is a series of captivating and dynamic works that challenge traditional painting techniques and offer a fresh perspective on the representation of fluidity in art.

"What's The Point" is a thought-provoking series that is a continuation of the "Surrender" series. This collection features the "wasted" paint, showcasing the creative potential of what is often considered as waste material. The artwork is composed of a diverse array of dots with a vast spectrum of colors, creating a visually striking and playful display. The use of dots in this series also highlights the versatility and beauty of color, demonstrating how even the smallest elements can have a big impact.
