About My Process

My paintings evolve through years of bold experimentation, each canvas a playground of vibrant energy. Every mark—whether a knife’s thick stroke, a brush’s soft edge, or a fingertip’s touch—brings color and form to life, inviting you into a vivid, three-dimensional world.

Finally, the yellow flower represents hope and the cycle of life arising from the ashes of death.
