EMPHASIS IN PAINTING
My work explores actions that can be taken to affect paint and ways to remove my agency over the image made. Abstraction is used as a medium to illustrate feelings using gestures and actions. Paintings are made as a pair displaying their direct relationship with one another through mirroring impressions and reflect the idea of attraction and repulsion through their proximity to one another which is inclusive of the process with which they are made.
