I Paint Nightmarish But Cute Dreamscapes

With my newest body of work, ‘Dehydrated Rainbow’, currently on exhibit at Corey Helford Gallery in Los Angeles, I have been primarily focused on the core concept of creativity when over-programming goes away. These dreamscapes represent the internal worlds that we can create when we aren’t distracted by daily scheduling. I try to tap into that place myself during my creative process and let traditional logic fade away.

I allow myself to remember thought processes that I had as a child when everything was more mysterious, unlimited, and often frightening. When a child has the time and freedom to go into their self-constructed worlds, fascinating things come about.
