Portrait of Past and Present Painting

As an artist, I delve into the intricacies of memory, identity, and history through my layered paintings. My inspiration comes from a multitude of sources, including nature, literature, Old Masters drawings, abstract expressionists, and contemporary art. I predominantly focus on the human figure, particularly women, with a goal of capturing their essence in a setting that seamlessly blends the past and present. My creative process involves using found materials, such as old maps, pages from antique books, lace and fabric, and technical drawings from my own sketchbooks. These materials provide the foundation for the complex layers of experience, nuances of personality, and social, ancestral, and geographical relationships that make up the human psyche. Transparent pigments and underpainting help convey a sense of depth, while the mix of collage and paint allows for drips, markings, and accidents to organically become part of the artwork. Through my paintings, I aim to offer a sense of connection and shared understanding, while exploring the unique and personal stories that shape who we are. I want viewers to be drawn into the worlds I create, to stop and look deeper into the elements and arrive at their own narrative, engaging with the characters in the painting.
