I create mandalas, a traditional practice, and combine that with the less structured aspects of abstraction. I work in paint and digitally. By using instinct and controlled accidents, a dialogue between myself the artworks emerge, and ultimately with the viewer as well. Personally, I often define these circular paintings as windows into the soul because my inspiration comes from my innermost feelings, thoughts, and experiences. I never work from a preconceived notion of what the final appearance will or should be.
My intention in the end is to have the viewer feel, think, question.
