Painting

I enjoy exploring various methods of working and often find myself contemplating whether different approaches might yield better results. During this period, I was experimenting with several distinct styles of painting. My goal with these particular paintings was to break away from traditional representation and venture into more unconventional expressions of color, shapes, materials, and canvas sizes. Drawing inspiration from diverse sources such as advertising, product imagery, animation, surrealism, and the intricate patterns commonly found in quilt making, I embraced a sense of creative freedom that was a refreshing departure from my day-to-day work. This exploration allowed me to push the boundaries of my artistic practice and discover new possibilities within my art.
