“On the Edge of the Ocean”

16" x 40"

Acrylic and torn -pre painted paper

$4,500.00

This piece presents a dreamlike coastal scene that merges realism with collage and abstraction, inviting viewers into both a physical and psychological landscape. A palm tree rises against a luminous sky that shifts from cool turquoise to warm yellow, suggesting the quiet threshold of sunrise or sunset, while gentle waves and distant landforms anchor the horizon.

In the foreground, a striped beach chair rests beneath a fringed yet worn umbrella, where a fragmented figure—assembled from layered textures and disparate visual elements—reclines with a drink in one hand and a palette with brushes in the other. An easel positioned toward the sea hints at the act of painting, blurring the line between observer and participant.

The use of mixed media introduces rich textures and a raw, natural aesthetic that enhances the tactile, immersive quality of the work, reinforcing the sense that this scene is both constructed and organic. The figure’s incomplete, collage-like form introduces a theme of identity and fragmentation, symbolizing a fractured sense of self in which multiple roles—the relaxed vacationer, the creative artist, and the detached observer—coexist yet resist full integration. this pieced-together presence suggests a remembered or imagined reality, evoking how moments of leisure and escape are often assembled in memory rather than experienced as a seamless whole. while the scene radiates warmth, rest, and idyllic calm, subtle disjunctions within the composition create a quiet tension, pointing to deeper reflections on longing, selfhood, and the interplay between living and capturing experience.

ultimately, the work considers the intersection of art and life, proposing that both are acts of assembly—carefully composed, imperfect, and deeply subjective.

“A Master in Awe, A craftsman’s revelation”

24" x 24"

Acrylic and charcoal on Canvas

$5,000.00

A master craftsman spent his life shaping beauty within the confines of his workshop, believing he could recreate the essence of life. one day, he stepped outside and saw a sunflower, its golden petals alive in the sunlight, swaying gently in the breeze. he was struck by its effortless beauty—something no tool or skill could ever replicate.

he realized then that true beauty cannot be possessed or recreated. to pluck the flower would only hasten its decay, stripping it of what made it extraordinary. he left it untouched, understanding that beauty lives in its fleeting, natural state. the craftsman returned to his work, humbled by the revelation that some things are meant to be admired, not owned.

“The Quiet between tides”

20" x 20"

Acrylic on Canvas

$3,000.00

A sacred pause. the moment when the ocean inhales and exhales, and everything in between seems to soften. it is not the crash of waves or the pull of the current that defines this scene, but the stillness that holds them both. in that quiet interval, a woman stands suspended between past and future, held gently by the warmth of the light and the rhythm of the sea. the palms sway, their fronds catching the golden air, while the horizon stretches endlessly.

the ocean, calm yet alive, becomes a mirror of the inner world: vast, unknowable, and deeply present. in choosing stillness, the figure is not passive but profoundly aware—listening to the hush of wind through leaves, the distant breath of water meeting shore, the subtle music of existence that is often missed in motion.

above, a bird cuts through the sky with effortless grace, embodying a different kind of freedom—the freedom of movement, of escape, of boundless possibility. yet its presence does not disrupt the stillness; instead, it completes it. the bird becomes a counterpart to the figure: one grounded, one soaring. together, they express two paths to liberation—one through motion, the other through presence.

there is a quiet revelation here: that freedom is not only found in flight, but also in the courage to remain, to feel, to be fully immersed in a single moment. the breeze against the skin, the warmth of the sun, the endless murmur of the tide—these become gateways to something deeper, almost spiritual. in this pause between tides, the self loosens its grip, and what remains is a sense of unity with the world—expansive, peaceful, and whole.

“What the journey reveals”

24" x 36"

Acrylic and torn -pre painted paper

$7,000.00

This mixed media painting weaves together painting and pre-painted, hand-cut paper to build layers of texture, fragmentation, and depth. the composition exists in a space between landscape and still life—where observation and imagination intersect. Familiar forms—fruit, horizon, sky—are broken apart and reassembled, creating a visual language that feels both constructed and discovered.

This work also marks a personal turning point. It is the first time I approached paper in this way—cutting, layering, and rebuilding the surface through intuition rather than control. The process itself became an act of exploration. Curiosity led the way, opening a new path in my practice, much like the journey unfolding within the painting. At its core, the work presents an exotic bloom—an oasis that emerges from within a fractured terrain. The vibrant fruits and lush forms suggest abundance, while the torn edges and layered surfaces hint at passage through something less certain—time, distance, and struggle. the landscape is not passive; it resists, shifts, and demands endurance.

The presence of the explorer is subtle but intentional. In the central left corner, a small figure—cut from a rotary magazine—moves quietly through the composition. Though easily overlooked, this figure anchors the narrative, embodying the journey across the terrain. He travels through shifting landscapes and seasons in search of something greater, eventually arriving at this place of convergence. what he encounters is not simply bounty, but transformation. the fruit becomes symbolic—of nourishment, reward, and the generosity of the earth after persistence. in this moment, the external journey turns inward. the explorer is changed, made aware of both the weight and abundance of existence.

the work holds this duality: struggle and reward, fragmentation and wholeness. it reflects a quiet realization—that the hardships and the gifts of life are inseparable, and that both are essential to the experience of being. in this way, the painting mirrors its own making: a journey led by curiosity, arriving somewhere unexpected, and revealing more than what was initially sought.

“Together, between seeing and being”

24" x 36"

Acrylic and torn -pre painted paper

$7,000.00

This piece explores the relationship between the two human figures, introducing a quiet but powerful emotional thread that anchors the entire composition.

Although the woman and the man never face each other directly, their connection is implied through orientation, stillness, and shared space. both figures are turned away from the viewer, absorbed in the same landscape, suggesting a bond that does not require direct interaction or overt gesture. this is a calm, mature companionship—one rooted in presence rather than performance. their silence feels intentional, not distant, as if they are jointly reflecting on the beauty before them.

The woman’s upright posture and the man’s position create a subtle balance—different physical states yet emotionally aligned. together, they form a visual rhythm that mirrors the natural elements around them. their separation within the composition is bridged by the layered collage fragments and organic forms, implying that even when apart, they are connected through a shared environment and inner experience. This sense of companionship is echoed in the birds, particularly the two toucans. the larger toucan, vivid and dominant, and the smaller one below create a parallel to the human relationship—different scales or roles, yet part of the same ecosystem. Birds are a symbol of freedom, communication, and partnership in nature. here, they reinforce the idea that connection exists across species, grounded in coexistence and mutual awareness.

the painting expands beyond individual introspection into a broader meditation on companionship. it suggests that true connection—whether between humans or within the natural world—is not always expressed through direct interaction, but through shared attention, harmony, and enduring presence. The man and woman embody a lifelong commitment that feels steady and unspoken, much like the quiet rhythms of nature itself. In this way, the fragmented collage elements no longer feel chaotic but connective—like threads weaving together different beings, moments, and perspectives into a unified whole. the painting becomes a reflection on enduring bonds: between man and woman, between creatures of the natural world, and between all living things that coexist within the same fragile, beautiful environment.

“Lady Ikebana”

12" x 12"

Acrylic and torn -pre painted paper

$700.00

This painting is my interpretation of ikebana, the japanese art of flower arrangement—also known as kadō, or “the way of flowers.” rooted in harmony, asymmetry, and a deep reverence for natural form, ikebana is not simply about arranging flowers, but about creating balance between space, movement, and life.

in my work, the hibiscus becomes the central element of this philosophy. growing up, hibiscus plants were always present in my home—carefully tended, admired, and quietly grounding our environment. they were more than decoration; they were part of the rhythm of daily life, embodying care, continuity, and calm.

the female figure emerges as an extension of this idea. she is not separate from the arrangement, but intertwined with it—her posture soft, inward, and contemplative. like ikebana itself, her form reflects balance through asymmetry, strength through gentleness. she carries the same quiet presence as the hibiscus: delicate yet resilient, expressive yet serene.

together, the figure and the flowers create a moment of stillness. the composition invites reflection, echoing the tranquility and beauty that both ikebana and my childhood environment instilled in me—a sense that care, intention, and simplicity can hold profound emotional depth.

“Keeper of our Oasis”

18" x 24"

Acrylic and torn -pre painted paper

$4,500.00

At the center of this lush composition, a woman stands with quiet authority, her back turned yet commanding the entire scene. her long, pale hair falls like a veil, softening her presence while also concealing her identity—she is not meant to be one person, but an archetype, a living embodiment of the earth itself. the delicate strap across her back and the minimal clothing suggest both vulnerability and unity with nature, as though she is inseparable from the oasis she protects.

her body becomes a living map, continents painted across her skin, transforming her into a symbolic fusion of woman and world. she is not simply within this paradise—she is it, its lifeblood and its keeper.

strapped along her arm is a knife made from torn, pre-painted paper, echoing her clothing and headband, and makes its way into the canvas to add depth. its presence subtle yet unmistakable. it introduces a quiet tension into the scene. this is not a weapon of aggression, but of resolve—a symbol of her willingness to defend this sacred space with her life if necessary. it speaks to the fragility of the paradise around her, reminding the viewer that such beauty and abundance are not guaranteed; they must be protected, sometimes fiercely.

around her, the oasis bursts with exaggerated vitality. massive slices of citrus glow like radiant suns, their interiors rich with warmth and energy. watermelon wedges, strawberries, cherries, and kiwi cluster in abundance, their vivid reds and greens creating a sensory feast. the fruits feel almost mythical in scale, evoking an edenic world where nourishment and pleasure are endless.

tropical foliage frames her form, leaves stretching outward like a natural halo. the deep greens contrast against the golden-yellow background, which bathes the entire scene in a perpetual, sunlit glow. there is no sense of time passing here—only a suspended moment of harmony, warmth, and life at its peak.

the painting embraces bold color and clean, confident shapes. the smoothness of the fruit surfaces contrasts with the more textured, organic rendering of the leaves and the soft blending of the figure’s skin. the intensity of the palette gives the work a vivid, almost dreamlike clarity.

altogether, the scene reads as a modern myth: a paradise sustained by a silent guardian. she nurtures, embodies, and protects this world of abundance, and the knife at her arm underscores an essential truth—paradise is precious, and its survival depends on those willing to stand between it and harm.

“The one who watches over”

Acrylic on Ready‑Made Resin Sculpture

$1,500.00

This sculpture carries a commanding sense of presence, as if it has stepped forward from a living narrative rather than remaining a static form. Its surface is adorned with bold patterns and vivid colors that read like ceremonial markings—symbols of identity, memory, and purpose.

The face is calm yet alert, holding a quiet intensity in the eyes that suggests awareness without aggression. The gorilla stands in a balance of strength and restraint: grounded, powerful, and steady, but never chaotic. Instead, it embodies the essence of a protector—an animal defined not only by instinct, but by responsibility.

There is dignity in that role. The figure evokes the one who stands between danger and the ones they love, who endures hardship not for personal gain but for the survival of the group. In this way, the sculpture becomes a mirror of the human condition. Like the gorilla, people navigate systems of survival—adapting, persevering, and carrying the weight of providing and protecting even when circumstances are difficult.

The painted patterns across its body can be read as layers of experience: identity shaped by environment, culture, and endurance. Yet the work does not feel heavy. Its vivid colors speak to a life that refuses to be muted by struggle, and its calm posture suggests acceptance rather than defeat. It reminds us that survival, with all its demands and sacrifices, can still hold meaning and grace.

Ultimately, the gorilla stands not only as guardian of its own world, but as a testament to the strength, resilience, and quiet beauty that emerge through the act of enduring.

“Companion”

Acrylic on Ready‑Made Resin Sculpture

$1,000.00

This vibrant sculpture portrays a stylized dog rendered in a highly saturated palette of blues, yellows, reds, and blacks. Its elongated body and attentive posture feel familiar, yet the surface treatment is anything but naturalistic. Bold geometric color‑blocking and fluid transitions wrap around the form, transforming the animal into a striking, almost iconic presence.

A smooth, polished finish heightens its contemporary appeal, while the large, expressive eyes become the emotional anchor of the piece. Their gentle, vulnerable gaze draws the viewer in, encouraging a quiet, personal connection.

The sculpture evokes a strong sense of empathy and companionship. Long associated with loyalty and unconditional presence, the dog is reimagined here as both an artistic statement and an emotional mirror. Its upward pose and softened features suggest attentiveness and trust—qualities that define the profound bond between humans and animals.

The layered, vibrant colors hint at emotional complexity, suggesting that beneath the playful exterior lies a deeper capacity for connection and understanding. By presenting a familiar companion through such bold, expressive abstraction, the artist invites viewers to reflect on the comfort, loyalty, and silent empathy that shape meaningful relationships. The work becomes a reminder of the profound, often unspoken connection shared between beings.
