4" x 4" x 1.5"

Acrylic on Canvas

This painting is available for purchase at Flourish Boutique in South Bend, IN.

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, and Nepal.

Acrylic on Wood Panel

This artwork is available for purchase here.

This meticulously detailed painting depicts a single pink rose before a background of vintage telephone number keys, which in turn is superimposed over a palette of soft blue with enlarged and illegible gold script writing. The pastel colors of the painting lend the piece a dulcet air of nostalgia, which is enhanced by the incomprehensibility of the juxtaposition of these various elements. The surface of the painting is textured to further create the feeling of age, while reflective metallic highlights were added to the gold script and silver number keys to add a bit of spark and shine. There is a huge amount of detail in this piece, with the softly unfolding petals of the rose and the 3-dimensional effect of the number keys. 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.

Ink on Book Page

This artwork is available for purchase here.

This is an intricately detailed ink drawing done on an antique book page. I'm not sure what the book is about because it appears to be written in Hungarian. The abstract forms of this drawing are elegant and flowing, referencing chimerical organic forms. I like the way the forms cover the words on the page, creating a tension between linear thinking and fanciful forms.
