"Nature always wears the colors of the spirit" Ralph Waldo Emerson I am an interdisciplinary artist. Painting, theater and movement are the art forms, The line of distance between my process in theater and painting are one in the same. The tools interchange creating and building the work, bringing the foundation of learned technique and spontaneity. The effects of color and energy are presented in our daily lives and conditions the spirit. The aim is to give color, texture and form, the mobility to compliment and agitate, contain and scatter into emotion and composition, producing variations of sensations, finding and meeting new possibilities, and spontaneously allowing the work to unfold. I am inspired by every aspect of life thus transforming color and movement into their own visual plays of depth.
