Watercolour on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

Signed on the back.

My style is best described as temporal psychoexpressionism: I capture the remnants of the fleeting feelings one has in evocative places. I explore and record the intersections of tradition and innovation by applying traditional mediums to modern abstract visual concepts.

My work draws inspiration from Marc Tobey and early Yayoi Kusama, along with early Christian art. I use watercolors and a self-made spackling paste-based primer to mimic the matte effect of frescoes. Each piece of my artwork captures a specific emotional moment in a specific physical place, referenced in the title. I often finish the sides of my paintings with gold leaf for a radiant halo effect when hung. My art fuses the past, present, and future, striving to encapsulate a sense of absolute timelessness. I count brushstrokes while I paint. Counting brushstrokes (and steps, and breaths, and blinks…) is my ritual that helps me stay focused in the race of the day-to-day and the result encourages the viewer to experience every moment of their life with full awareness, as everything surrounding us is only temporary.

This piece has over 16,000 strokes on the surface and is inspired by the shadows on the surface of the Lake in Central Park, New York.

This painting is done on a canvas with 2'' profile. No framing is necessary for this piece: sides of the canvas are gilded with sealed imitation gold leaf, which creates magical reflection on the wall when hit with light.
