This series of oil paintings is an analysis, a summary, a diary, and a confession. For
me, creating art is a process of self-knowledge and excavation. Through art, I refocus on
feelings and emotions to create a connection to the world around me. Time passes, and many
factors influence who we are. Over our lifetimes, people experience similar struggles, regrets,
and moments of relief. With every choice, there is loss and gain. Sunlight always comes with
shadows, and every cloud has a silver lining. Art provides me an opportunity for non-verbal
expression and communication about these ideas. Each person is a unique part of this world.
I want to cherish this uniqueness in myself and others. The graduate program has enabled me
to explore my inner mental activity more than ever before. Although I paint specific
individuals, I am also recording the impressions, feelings, and abstract stories that swirl
around them.
