Currents

Some works move quietly; others arrive with force. This series does both, often within the same work of art.

Currents considers the shifting states that hover between calm and unrest. The paintings evoke the experience of standing at the edge, where the horizon dissolves and the body is carried by forces beyond itself. They are shaped by tides, unsettled skies, and the softened outlines of the West Coast.

Color behaves like weather. Deep blue opens into white, violet folds into gold, and sudden flashes of brightness surge through shadow. Pools of pigment create surfaces where light pauses, gathers, and moves again. Each work is a negotiation between stillness and motion, between restraint and release.

These paintings are not meant to provide answers. They extend an invitation. They ask the viewer to follow the flow of pigment, to drift as elemental forces do, until the image becomes something personal, a memory, a sensation that cannot be named, but is fully felt.

At its heart, Currents is about contrast and the quiet forces that shape us. It reflects what we discover when we allow ourselves to change, and the strength that can be found in surrendering to movement.
