Acrylic on Wood
"For years I battled anxiety without realizing it and last year I had to confront it for the first time I stumbled upon something extraordinary in my studio. Despite trying numerous art forms, I never quite found the inspiration I craved, always feeling like a part of me was missing in my art. Mandela never held much appeal to me but with therapy I was looking for something that would calm my mind and let me escape and had heard about the calming and rhythmic effect of dot art so I gave it a try and found that missing piece that I’ve been searching for. I’ve only begun my journey and find myself completely immersed in it and every piece draws me in more which is why my latest piece has been named Journey."
