In this series, I want to show the sheer joy and energy I feel when I’m surrounded by nature. In order to achieve the desired mood for my work, I combine abstract artist techniques of dripping, pouring, splattering and some brushwork in acrylic, followed by a sculptor-like technique of applying paint thickly using palette knives, thereby creating multi-dimensional images. The resulting style achieves a richness of depth that explodes with color, flows with light, and evokes an emotional response. By utilizing vivid hues and contrasting the play of light and color to create drama, my broad energetic strokes add to a sense of vitality and motion, bringing my landscapes to life. I hope these energetic expressions lift people’s spirits and instill a sense of hope.
