I have always been in love with color, structures and atmosphere. After an unexpected spiritual transformation in 2014, I started speaking indifferent silent languages that use sound waves, vibration and different frequencies to transmit information to me. Examples include watching ocean waves and listening to wind to understand the future as well as “hearing” what the Universe/God/Source/Divine Light has to say. I’m less like a human and more like an animal. Strangely, I paint meticulously, like a scientist.
My current series, which involves the strength and tension of black lines pulling taught against/dancing with colorful shapes, tells a story of fear fighting love, the largest fight on Earth currently. This fight is evident in the energies of the media, politics, the weather, and interpersonal relationships. My interest in discussing the fight evolved out of that spiritual transformation.
Painting in this silent, abstract language has been enriched over the past 8 years while curating the abstract geometric, modern, contemporary, and graffiti-based Instagram named @1milliondiamonds.
Through an elaborate process, the pieces are conceived in Adobe Illustrator, then printed into vinyl to achieve the perfect shape for each part of the painting. Each shape must be the exact, perfect shape to convey the language. The vinyl is then transferred to the canvas as a mask, gelled over and painted in matte or gloss acrylic paint.
When painted, my compositions spring to life to visually confess a story, animating the painting for the viewer. My favorite parts of my work are the ways that the shapes speak and connect. The mystery in the dark corners. The sharp and spiky shapes vs the squooshy shapes. The multitude of color tints within each piece ranging from fluorescent to muted to colorful. My hope is that I, as a messenger, successfully transmit the message between giant, magical thought forms, to pronounce and accent what needs to be seen and heard.
