My approach is straightforward: I aim to simplify the complex so as to allow the true essence to stand out and be valued. In addition, I strive to bring out the beauty of everything that speaks to me—whether it be an object or a topic. This is to say that I paint with a certain approach that maybe carries a different meaning to me than to my viewers. However, I try my best to focus on the perspective and let that perspective speak to the viewers.
