In architecture, I formed the naïve idea that one does not have ample room to venture into the realms of fantasy and impossibilities. Because there is order and structure at the heart of architecture, and even of photography, I began to find myself neglecting an urgent need to explore unobstructed fluidity in my creative works.
In painting, I have found a new freedom in expression, which was only enhanced by the very foundation I found constricting, at first. My experience in constructing and deconstructing the environments around me led me to see the world in varying perspectives. I work to marry these perspectives on the canvas with a malleable and fluid medium. This is why I favor abstract and non-objective styles in my works, using color to present liquid & dynamic landscapes. Because I still find peace in geometric blocking and predictable patterns, I often find myself integrating these conflicting aesthetics upon the final product seen on canvas: pure expression.
