40” x 30” Mixed Media on Birch Panel 2025

“The landscapes in “Beneath the Tempest Sky” and “Unmade” embody a sense of being both grounded and untethered. While the trees remain physically rooted, they evoke stability and resilience. Meanwhile, the tumultuous, abstract, and shifting background creates an atmosphere of fluidity and detachment. This interplay explores nature’s persistence amidst chaos and change, inviting the viewer to navigate the delicate balance between connection and detachment.”
