"Emerald's Symphony of Chaos" is a 36" x 48" acrylic on canvas abstract work dominated by a central burst of energetic, thick-stroked movement. The deep, atmospheric background of magentas and olives contrasts sharply with the vibrant foreground, which features streaking marks in striking colors, including vivid yellows, reds, and prominent turquoise.
​The composition captures a moment of dynamic release, evocative of starlight or musical Sforzando. This feeling of electric energy is heightened by the red and yellow accents, which brilliantly shimmer and catch the light, adding an element of fantastical dimension to the chaotic cascade. The rich, unplanned emergence of the emerald-toned backdrop suggests a hidden, magical world underlying the spontaneous action.

Dance of The Polyrhythm is a dynamic, large-scale abstract work (36" x 40") defined by the rhythmic complexity and dense texture of heavy body acrylics. The title speaks to the simultaneous use of contrasting visual rhythms established by the bold, interwoven strokes of teal/blue, yellow/chartreuse, and black. The painting creates a compelling illusion: bright green appears through the layering of blue and yellow, even though it was never applied. This powerful visual deception gives the piece a captivating Polyrhythm between its energetic surface and its underlying complexity.

"Midnight Blue" is a compelling abstract work defined by its deep, atmospheric palette and strong horizontal movement. The 30x40 inch canvas is filled with broad, layered strokes of varying indigo, gray, black, and deep midnight blues, with subtle flashes of light turquoise and purple adding depth. The powerful horizontal orientation and the visible impasto texture suggest the gentle, yet vast and tranquil, movement of a deep body of water or the shifting bands of a night sky. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation and serene power.

"Rhythm of Aurora" is a mesmerizing abstract expression of light and motion, capturing the dramatic spectacle of the northern lights through powerful, structured brushwork. The 24 x 36 acrylic on canvas features a vertical cascade of intense colors—including deep sapphire blues, passionate crimsons, and shimmering metallic golds—layered against a moody, textural background. The dynamic, sweeping strokes create a palpable sense of movement and visual music, suggesting the ethereal dance of the aurora borealis while maintaining a grounded, forceful rhythm. This piece is a vibrant statement, where color, texture, and light converge in a powerful, compelling flow.
