These elements are connected through my expressions. They are made from the energy of my soul . I’m inspired and influenced by Japanese calligraphy and use big brushstrokes and vibrant color in order to capture life and vitality from my imagination. Most of the images selected are monotypes with pastel added on top. Monotypes are unique prints made by painting plexiglass and transferring the image to paper by running it though a printing press. The spontaneity of the image achieved by this method is singular and the mistakes and chance happenings made by this process have been fascinating and surprising. I am also inspired by music in a non direct way. The rhythms of line, harmonies of color and vibrations of melody all have an impact on my working method and inspiration.
