Entangled is an original oil on canvas constructed with palette knives and smoothed through mixed media methods. This piece depicts 2 figures represented with contrary colors become enmeshed and entangled. The lines of separations between the two figures becomes more of a suggestion than a real line.

This recent painting, Dancing 2025, was inspired by my previous work, The Waltz (2020). I included both pieces to show a progression of my work. I consider the styles to be different, but here I was much more intentional with the movement of the tertiary colors, the purpose of their presence in the background, and how to play and reflect that part of the work against the movement of the figures. Again to create this piece I filled in the background, and the rest of the composition was completed using palette knives. As in earlier pieces, this work includes a happy, scintillating yellow, but rather than being drowned out, it is revealed as the viewer moves closer to the figures. The colors are less muddled in some areas and thickly applied in others, adding to the emotion and movement of the piece. I enjoy making dynamic paintings like this and aim to evoke emotion through the harmonic movements and subtle accented colors.

Part of a series, Wet Sunrise is an original oil painting with expressive exploration of texture and color, created using a palette knife and pure oil pigments. Bold strokes and textured peaks of color create a rhythmic interplay between light and shadow, with each layer of paint adding depth and energy to the composition. The colors interact in vibrant, harmonious ways, creating a sense of movement and fluidity that shifts with the viewer’s perspective
