Happiness Island

Tectonic Shift

My paintings are a combination of abstract and representational drawing and collage combined with colorful pools of staining. I like to draw on canvas because of the way it sucks up the ink as soon as I make a line. When I stain my canvas, I like to call it “making continents”. I find it calming to watch the separate pools of water slowly move and merge, forming shapes of its own. Sometimes I intervene, sometimes I don’t.

Here are some examples of my earlier small works. I have recently moved into a larger size which I will post in the near future.
