About Me
My background
Welcome to my page of expression, meditation, and escape from a world where we have no control. I have learned over the years that the only thing I truly have control over in this life, is how I respond to stress and forces that are just part of the world in which we live.
I am reminded on a daily basis that there are no guarantees in this life and that we must make the best of the time we are given.
In my downtime I like to stay busy. I enjoy pursuing hobbies that are centered around mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. Getting lost in abstract artwork just so happens to be a meditative outlet for me. My process involves going to the far corner of my studio, painting for hours on end (with my four-legged friends by my side) and experimenting with different colors & techniques to transform a blank canvas to something that speaks to me. I willfully lose track of time painting, I am inspired by the abstract world that presents itself on the canvas, and I revel in its innate ability to allow me to forget the harshness of this world (even if only for a moment).
My experience
My interest with abstract fluid art started several years ago when I was decorating for an anniversary party. I had an idea to make 15 abstract fluid art center pieces for the event. At the end of the night, I offered up the center pieces as gifts to anyone "moved" by the canvases.
I left the party that night empty handed but full of pleasure in knowing that I brought a bit of joy to party goers by sharing a little abstract acrylic fluid art. This was the first time I realized that people might actually like what I do.
My vision
I envision a world where I can continue to provide care for patients in the real world and perhaps a mental escape for others while "taking in" one of my many creations.
Abstract fluid art morphs into a plethora of descriptive nuances that completely depend on the eye of the beholder.
Perhaps one of my creations will speak to you too.
