REFLECTIONS is more than just a collection of paintings... It’s my story, told in color, movement, and emotion. It’s about the messy, unpredictable, and beautiful process of becoming.
For as long as I can remember, I’ve used art to understand myself. I started with physical mediums... Paint on my hands, canvases covered in layers of movement, color pouring and dripping in ways I could never really control. Acrylic pouring and drip painting became my way of letting go, surrendering to the process, and watching chaos become something meaningful.
Black, white, and pink became my palette—not just because they look striking together, but because they represent the contrast in my life. The darkness and the light. The moments of clarity and the times I felt lost. The vibrancy of passion and love, the quiet weight of pain and uncertainty.
But REFLECTIONS didn’t stop at the canvas. As I created this book, I moved from physical to digital. This allowed me to translate my paintings into another form that could live beyond the canvas. It was an entirely new process that was very rewarding. Just like I had grown and changed over the years, my art adapted in this instance too. The book became more than just a collection of images; it became a way to connect, to share, to invite others into the story.
Every piece in REFLECTIONS represents a chapter in my life such as breaking free from things that held me back, rediscovering my love for art, embracing change even when it scared me, and finding balance between who I was and who I am becoming. Some paintings came from moments of joy, others from pain, but all of them came from a place of truth.
This book is deeply personal, but it’s also universal. We all go through moments of uncertainty, of reinvention, of rediscovering ourselves. My hope is that as you look through these pages, you’ll find pieces of your own story reflected back at you. Because art, at its core, is about connection. It’s about feeling seen, even when words aren’t enough.
