Abstract art can establish a line of communication directly from the artist's inner vision to the viewer's imagination and elicit a specific emotional response. I am inspired by nature and poetry, and I paint the world as I see it- imperfect and in constant change. ​ My work is part of the French Lyrical Abstract art movement, depicted by emotive, expressive, and imaginary compositions that emphasis colour and shape. I create my work through a unique technique of vigorous knife strokes that creates a textured and layered surface full of impasto markings. Thereafter I use sweeping thick movements of paint in a dynamic spontaneous manner that depict the ephemeral nature of light and the passing of time.
