Candy Colors

6" x 6"

Acrylic on Wood Panel

This painting is SOLD.

This meticulously detailed painting depicts a colorful arrangement of marbles, an orange wrapped candy, and Tootsie Fruit Rolls. My focus with this piece was in creating a compelling composition in terms of color, as well as a dynamic interplay between opacity and translucency. I enjoy the process of photorealist painting, as it requires intense focus and concentration which usually leads to a rather meditative state of seeing and painting.

Acrylic on Canvas

This painting is a brightly colored abstract floral explosion! The style is aesthetically inspired by my keen interest in the folk arts of Mexico and India, particularly in the intensity of their color palettes and their detailed patterns. This painting combines my love for tribal art with a contemporary urban aesthetic, resulting in a fresh, vibrant abstract style that expresses the complexity and multiplicity of modern life through a youthful and jubilant perspective. The color scheme of this painting was inspired by the intricate embroidery created by the tribal Kutch people in India. Several metallic paints are used - gold, silver, copper, and turquoise - as decorative accents which reference the tiny mirrors that they embroider into their clothes and tapestries. This painting may be hung with any side facing up! The 1.5" thick edges of this painting are painted black, so this painting ready to hang directly onto the wall without a frame!

This painting depicts a large-eyed male figure with a deeply contemplative appearance. I enjoy creating portraits from my imagination using unconventional color combinations as a way to convey certain moods and feelings which are left open to the interpretation of the viewer. To enhance the sense of mood and energy, the surface of this painting is quite textured.

16" x 20" x 1.5"

Acrylic on Canvas

This painting is SOLD.

The theme of this highly charged painting is the mythic concept of cosmic origins. This painting is incredibly detailed; writhing with numerous colors and various designs which symbolize the endless energy and flow of spirit and matter. My abstract paintings are very process-oriented and carry a spiritual meaning related to the mystery of existence and a reverence for the unfolding process of life. While working on paintings that are this detailed and colorful, I become so immersed in the work that applying paint becomes a meditative process through which I strive to achieve balance amidst chaos (similar to the concept of mushin). The colors and designs arise spontaneously and reflect my interest in tribal and aboriginal art, specifically in the act of storytelling through nonrepresentational means. My abstract art is also heavily inspired by my world travels, particularly my visits to remote tribal villages in the Kutch region of India, as well as my visits to temples and roadside shrines in Sri Lanka, India, Nepal, and most recently, Thailand.
