I work in abstract painting as a way to make internal states visible. My process begins not with an image, but with a feeling — often grief, longing, tenderness, or the quiet tension between loss and hope. Paint becomes a language for what is difficult to name.

I am drawn to raw surfaces, stains, and layered marks that hold traces of time and movement. I allow chance, dilution, and gravity to participate in the work, treating the canvas as a place where control and surrender coexist. Each painting evolves slowly, through attention and listening rather than resolution.

My background includes a rigorous, disciplined art education that emphasized precision and restraint. My current practice is about unlearning — allowing emotion, vulnerability, and ambiguity to remain present. I am interested in the subtle shifts within a painting: where sadness softens, where heaviness lifts slightly, and where something quiet but resilient begins to emerge.

These paintings are not illustrations of emotion, but containers for it — spaces where feeling can exist without explanation.
