Overthink: an internal record player Print

My art is a visual feast for the senses, as my vibrant paintings practically come to life under the illuminating glow of UV black-light. My creative process is a spontaneous and intuitive journey, where I let my mood dictate the colors and composition of each stroke. My brushwork is both whimsical and fluid, capturing a playful sense of movement while also hinting at deeper emotional undertones. Through expressive layering techniques, I craft intricate works that are bursting with texture and depth. My paintings are a reflection of the complex human experience, delving into topics such as mental health, identity, relationships, and the interconnectedness of our world. Each piece is a dreamy escape, inviting viewers to explore their own innermost thoughts and feelings while contemplating the dualities of life and purpose. My signature style seamlessly blends abstract and street art techniques, using both representational and nonrepresentational elements to create a mesmerizing visual experience. Each painting is a unique and deeply personal expression of my own memories, stories, and emotions, evoking a sense of nostalgia and wonder through the interplay of light and shadow.
