Artist Statement
As a mixed-media painter, I’m inspired by vibrant colors and the playful energy of acrylic ink and paint. My work is intuitive and evolves organically, often gravitating toward themes of sea life and birds. Influenced by the bold expressions of *Der Blaue Reiter* and contemporary artists such as Elizabeth St. Hilaire and Tracy Verdugo, I embrace spontaneity and the joy of discovery in my creative process. My goal is to share the sense of fun and freedom I experience while painting, inviting viewers to find beauty, joy, and playfulness in my work.
