Tranquility - Swimming through the collective pays tribute to my roots in Impressionism and my enduring admiration for the artists of that era, particularly Monet. The darkened waters mirror the challenging times we face, yet the light continues to shine brightly. The flowers that manage to thrive amidst these murky conditions symbolize the potential for growth and peace when we come together. Just as these flowers bloom and emerge from the darkened waters, we can grow and flourish Together during tumultuous and unsettling times and find peace. Together we can navigate peacefully just as the fish swimming in harmony even during the most trying times, and darkened turbulent waters.

  
I have been emotionally driven to stretch my mind and my artistic abilities beyond my early conventional style of art and dive into a new innovative styles of abstracts. While exploring the deeper underlying connections between nature and humanity .I portray these connections often using very intense colors, or painting earthy patterns, shapes, and abstract and impressionism views and forms of of nature and our natural resources . Always reminding my viewers of the correlation and relationship between life, nature and humanity and the vital source of comfort and life that nature provides us while bringing awareness to the beauty and the importance of nature and our earth and it's vitality to our existence .
