Item description
Abstract paintings and crafts made with various paints; such as acrylic, giclee, and india inks.
The painting to the top right corner depicts five warm-colored circles that get larger in size on a light blue background, with long strokes of dark green connecting to some of the circles and separating others. Thin, dark, circular splatters of paint overlap the piece. Underneath the piece are rectangular strips of paper arranged in a sunburst shape, each piece has a small hole at the end, and is splattered with blue. A vertical piece of paper connects the sunburst to a horizontal piece, splattered with yellow. To the left of the sunburst are nine horizontal strips of paper splattered with red, yellow, and blue. To the far left is another sunburst arranged like the first, with thin, circular splatters. To the bottom right corner is another abstract painting with a large, brown stroke and smaller red and blue paint splatters.

Perspective Project 1
My work aims to pause the exchange between cells. I hold their movement, interchanges, and beauty in space to remind us that all of existence is shifting and composed of these small structures. While I have added a few examples of my painting style, they all are intended to demonstrate this idea. My painting process is mostly fingerpainting and layering over time. In a sense this is to mimic a higher figure, molding and altering that which the world is composed of.
The paper piece that is shaped as a globe is called the Perspective Project. It's a meditation tool to process life's influences, experiences, and individual values as well as a discussion prompt.
