Inspired by a shift from loss, I've discovered a theme of resilience and adaptation. It marks a transition from loss, emerging from dissolution into evolution. This new work is a conversation between memory and transformation, honoring the past's influence on the present.
"Silent Echoes" differs from my recent works. While it also highlights a horse, it's more conceptual and composed mostly of acrylic. I see it as my transitional piece (or delimiter), a search for a space beyond grief. As a re-imagined self-portrait, it explores identity and hope, embodying resilience and self-reflection.
I used generative AI to help actualize the idea for this painting. It's a tool that I've incorporated into my painting process that's become quite useful for creating reference material for challenging concepts.
This piece is largely acrylic. Oil creates the detail in the hair, some of the cottonball clouds, and the armor of the astronaut.
Dispatches from the Liminal Bathroom
Dispatches from the Liminal Bathroom is a newsletter for anyone who loves paintings, strange spaces, weird monologues, and the occasional sideways glimpse into the creative process. This is where my paintings meet the fieldnotes and monologues that orbit them — thoughts that surface sideways, like signals from another room.
You’ve wandered into a portal disguised as a newsletter.
Subscribing means stepping into a slower rhythm — new works, reflections on process, fieldnotes, odd transmissions, and low-key rebellions. Sometimes glimpses from the studio. Sometimes a pattern that only reveals itself when you stay in the portal a little longer.
There’s no urgency here. Just a threshold where art unfolds, and the writing follows. You’re welcome to stay as long as you like.
