Existing in the center of the garden, a red figure looks into the mirror and applies makeup to its rectangle head resembling a painting. Once applied, sections of the figures facial features are suppressed and pushed back in the distance. In the foreground; a blue-green figure portrays the mirrors behavior by paying homage to The Birth of Venus. However, it's upper body is split in two symbolizing symmetry and beauty.

About the Work
Each painting is intricately detailed with the intent of capturing the viewers attention regardless if they’re observing from afar or close up. Using a painting technique called automatism allows the plethora of shapes to form in the moment. This adds a level of uniqueness not found otherwise. Additionally I add layers of transparent paint to create a rich and complex color scheme. By combining the two elements, you’ll be presented with a piece of artwork that breathes personality into any environment.

Artist Statement
Using automatic painting techniques, my mind enters a meditative state. As I begin to follow the strings of the subconscious web, the organic forms develop within the painting. One form leads to another, like a trail of thoughts. It’s as if my mind and the paint are in sync with each other. As I explore my own mind, gaining an understanding of myself; I’m also gaining an understanding of the forms.
