Abstract Art: Reflection on Movement and Change
"Wind Wafting" captures the feeling of movement and change, inspired by drives through the Midwest, where colors blur and shapes shift with the seasons. Abstract art lets me communicate beyond what’s seen, using colors and forms to create a sense of wind and motion in the landscape. Every layer in this painting tells a story of how autumn fields move and change when you're traveling through them.
The Emotional Ride of Painting an Abstract Seascape
Breakers Tossing pulls you in with bold lines and colors, evoking the raw energy of a stormy ocean and challenging you to let go of control, to embrace the unexpected. This isn’t a painting that tells a story—it’s one that asks you to feel, to connect with its emotion and discover your own meaning. Like life itself, Breakers Tossing is messy and unpredictable, but within its chaos lies a striking beauty that reminds us to seek clarity in the unexpected and find those small, fleeting moments of grace.
Painting Dogs: Capturing Loyalty and Spirit
Painting dogs isn’t just about getting the details right; it’s about capturing the spirit they bring into your life, and this Australian Shepherd, with his calm and loyal energy, really stood out to me. Unlike other dogs I’ve painted, he didn’t jump all over me but gently guided me, herding me through the backyard with his quiet, watchful presence. When I started the painting, I wasn’t just focused on his likeness—I wanted to capture how he made me feel: calm, protected, and always looked after.
