The Embrace
50x60 in
Acrylic on canvas

The Embrace depicts different spirits intertwined in a shared moment of connection, evoking collective memory and belonging. Inspired by the image of "pasta clumped together before boiling," the work transforms a humorous everyday observation into a symbol of unity and intertwined histories.

Haters and Lovers
30x25in
Acrylic on canvas

The princess steals the prince and reversing dowry traditions. By reversing traditional roles, it playfully challenges expectations surrounding power, agency, and exchange.

Self Portrait
40x60in
Acrylic on canvas

Part of an ongoing series of self-portraits created every few years, this work reflects my current exploration of sages, transformation, and spiritual inquiry. Frog symbolism and mystical references suggest a vulnerable, open soul in search of deeper truths.

Double Douce
20x30in
Acrylic on canvas

The Jester Twins embody duality, mischief, and playful chaos. Inspired by the familiar pairing of “Thing 1” and “Thing 2,” they reflect the unpredictable energy of mirrored identities.

Search and Revival
65x92in
Acrylic on canvas

This work portrays powerful spirits gathered around a fallen being suspended between dimensions, in a realm where time stands still. The work explores transformation, guidance, and the possibility of renewal beyond the boundaries of the physical world.

Racks on Racks
40x60in
Acrylic on canvas

More to the "mask series," this piece explores the shifting layers of identity that don't always look the same. Inspired by character No-Face from Spirited Away, the work reflects a state of organized confusion, where self-discovery begins through the process of unmasking.
