Abstract Modern Still Life

What better way to inspire tranquility and soothe your senses than a walk at the beach? In my sea-inspired paintings, I try to capture the color, light, and atmosphere of beach days that we all want to keep in our memories. Either it’s a nostalgic seascape, a subtle splash of color, or a whimsical figure of a lifeguard stand, left there as a lonely monk on its duty…

the road is not a destination, it's a way...

Untraveled Roads

or most of American history, barns were the center of farm life, and still are for many families today. As Eric Sloan describes in his book An Age of Barns, barns are “the palaces of America.” The best way to pay respect to these palaces is to keep them maintained and save in memory

Portraits & Emotions

In a series of my new artworks, I do find myself …“in a search of imperfection”. It makes me emotionally close to Japanese wabi-sabi aesthetics, with its simplicity, roughness and modesty. Nothing needs to be fixed! No more technological polish, silicon, or visual clarity! Only imperfect spots, gentle flaws, asymmetry, and uneven lines. Practicing imperfection in art helped me realized that things are the most beautiful when they are unfinished or begin to fade. Like never before, now I sense serenity in aging when scars become signs of experience, rust and patina become a new elegance…

Trees are just like people. They have deep feelings and different emotions. They are all not alike, and you can talk to them like to random people about everything… Under the crowns of trees, it is good in any weather..it’s like a shelter for a stranger to sit, relax and recharge… After meeting with them, you feel refreshed and full of energy to live and believe again..

Trees, how People

I am always looking for a new form, news ways of expressing my ideas and thoughts. I use classical art forms, but also enjoy playing with new different materials. This project consists of a few artworks, created different way, but each one is about what I'm exposed to living on the ocean: salty water, hot sand, fresh breeze, dry lips, and messy hair, with the wind in it.
