Before voice arises, there is listening.
Shaping Whispers into Form explores how drawing becomes a language of stillness and silence begins to speak through the hand. #ArtAsMeditation #KindledConnection

A digital #workinprogress that i am trying to convince myself i have the energy to finish today. Art holds the artist so kindly. Maybe i should crop and distort it and just lean into color structure of browns and golds.

Dubrovnik’s coast is a painter’s palette — Lake Como blues, Greek whites, and Riviera golds. Inside the walls, Old Town is a living collage of centuries: marble textures, spice-scented air, and the sea framing it all in shifting light.

Art can be made while unable to stand, drooling, shuddering from pain in bed and that makes me, i think, outrageously lucky. 3/3

Last day at sea. I think about how an abstract painting is like sailing — u never know where the edges are until you move through them. Today the Adriatic gave me a new color for my memory.

The kind of light that doesn’t dip, just lingers—

A lantern, a shadow, and the light waiting within.
This charcoal still life taught me that darkness is never empty.
It holds memory, quiet, and the promise of return.
