Art is not just a passion for me—it’s a necessity, a lifeline that breathes joy into my existence. Each creation is a passionate endeavor, a testament to the courage and resilience of those who face life’s toughest challenges, much like my own journey as a left forearm amputee. Through my art, I express the profound lessons learned from unexpected twists of fate, complicated yet resolved.
I’ve chosen multimedia, but I’ve recently been drawn to acrylic fluid art. The scientific process behind acrylic fluid art is intriguing. I’m attracted to the lurking chaos in the pearl pour and swipe techniques and the life it brings to the canvas. I’m influenced by the colors and movement in nature and its ever-changing elements. It’s deliberate and reactive.
I meticulously recreate the shapes and shadows in nature, seeking to capture its essence on canvas, bringing my paint to life. I’m driven to push the boundaries, creating paintings that provoke thought and ignite curiosity in art lovers. The idea of someone contemplating my work, pondering its meaning, fills me with a sense of purpose.
For me, art is more than just creating—it’s a spiritual and emotional journey guided by the wonders of nature. It’s through my art that I find solace, inspiration, and the strength to face life’s uncertainties.
