My current works breaks from my past figurative work practice to explore geometric structures paired with soft, organic shapes creating a dialogue between color and form. Mainly using acrylic on canvas, the radiant, bright color combinations animate the shapes and forms within these paintings, attempting to investigate emotion through painting as opposed to a specific idea or concept. These new pieces give me more freedom of form and create something new within my art journey entirely.
