Embracing the World's Essence

7/17/2022

My artistic journey across the world has been an odyssey of discovery, exploring the diverse landscapes and cultures that shape our existence. Each destination left an indelible mark on my canvases, portraying the profound connection between me and my environment. Through these unconventional methods, I hope my art inspires others to celebrate the beauty of our world and cherish the interplay between nature and human creativity. The world is a storehouse of inspiration, waiting to be embraced by the artist within us all.
Canada: Where Art Meets Nature's Embrace 

During my time in Canada, I delved into the raw beauty of its icy landscapes. With a daring spirit, I buried my canvases in the frozen ground and exposed them to the biting cold temperatures. This immersion in nature added an extraordinary texture and depth to my artwork, capturing the essence of the rugged Canadian wilderness.

Montana: Painting Snow Angels with Nature's Palette 

In Montana, I embraced the pristine beauty of winter by making snow angels with paint and snow on my canvases. The enchanting experience allowed me to channel the pure serenity of the snowy mountains and the exuberance of a child.

Paris: Unconventional Infusions - A City's Soul on Canvas 

The enchanting city of Paris provided me with inspiration that transcended traditional art forms. Here, I experimented with unique mediums such as burnt tobacco from cigarette butts and coffee grounds, weaving the city's soul into my compositions.

New York: Resilience in Rust and Print 

In the bustling metropolis of New York, I embraced the city's relentless spirit by scavenging for rusty pieces fallen from the iconic Brooklyn Bridge. These fragments, infused with the iconic New York Times newspaper, symbolized the passage of time and the vibrant tapestry of urban life, etched into my work.

Hawaii: Nature's Palette in Harmony

On the paradisiacal shores of Hawaii, my art took a vibrant turn. Infusing Hawaiian dirt from our off-grid homestead, palm fronds, black volcanic sand, and rainwater into my paintings, I embodied the harmony between human existence and the natural world. The resulting creations radiated the tropical energy and beauty of the islands.

Costa Rica: Immersing with Nature's Depths 
​

In Costa Rica, I dived into the depths of artistic exploration by swimming with my canvases. The immersive experience allowed me to merge with the elements, capturing the vitality of the surrounding flora and fauna. The fusion of art and water became a testament to the fluidity of life and the interconnectedness of all living beings.
