Automatic writing, sleep talking and walking, and Freudian slips
always have been events I unwillingly experienced during my life. My
artistic process pays close homage to the meaning behind the
subconscious slip, mark, and line. Recently, extending a small, rough
drawing using unconventional materials brings into focus the
relationship between the deliberate and coincidental. Approaching
the drawing as if it were a painting, the abstract marks extend until
they become an object, a space, or a shape. I am interested in the
moment when the repetitious erasing and layering creates an
environment that has a beginning and end. When a sense of place and
identity are achieved during the process of subconscious and conscious
mark-making, it reaffirms that the nonsensical world of feelings has
at times more meaning than the sensical.

Your things a very beautiful too. Lol, that sounds like polite pap, but its not.
Your colours are sumptuous, your arrangements remind me of rococo, romantic but also marks particulerly like Munch.
Remindss me also of one of my favorite contemporary painters, Katy Moran.
all the best
