After a long journey through various art forms and mediums (music, photography, illustration, and graphic design, to name a few), I landed on abstract minimal painting because I am interested in telling a story with very few attributes. My work can sometimes be extremely minimalist and simple, but it can also be more complex, linear and mathematical. Whatever the work calls for, I make it. Color plays a big role in my work as it can evoke different emotions or memories. I am always inspired by our natural world and the mathematical patterns found there. My goal is to create works that can convey a feeling or a mood.
