To Avoid Corruption Print

I created this painting to visually represent the struggle to discern right from wrong. Attempting to grow inside of a volcano, the resilient flower has some dying petals but many flourishing ones. I believe that growing closer to nature teaches us about ourselves in a pure and authentic way. In my paintings, I create simple nature scenes veiled with symbolism to explore what gives life meaning. I strive for minimalist design elements, as often the simplest metaphors can have the most profound impact. The concepts for my artwork are influenced by Christianity, Zen, Taoism, and Philosophy.
