My abstract paintings from 2007 to the present continue to explore the possibilities of piling an abundance of visual information into relatively limited space. The style continues to mature in the form of heavily- detailed, colorful patterns and designs that mesh into a powerful poise between chaos and order. The work can be described as both "tribal" and "psychedelic", reflecting an interest in absorbing and interpreting the world through non-intellectual means. For me, the colors and chaos paradoxically induce a quiet mental stillness as I allow my eyes and mind to trail the many details without the common present-day yoke of assigning meaning to every single thing. Thus the artwork has become a means for inner healing. Through the use of harmonious colors and whimsical patterns, the viewer is allowed the space and freedom to set aside the mind's constant 'inner babble' in order to allow the purely experiential flow of undefined visual information to flow unencumbered through the mindstream.
