My paintings depict the human body with thick layers of paint, which hide, yet reveal it. It is similar to the trauma and other emotions that manifest over time. Sentences from my research, colors, abstraction, and placement of these paintings go through a well-thought process to depict various emotions, situations, and traumas one experiences in life.
