"Seemingly ordinary spaces became portals to something extraordinary–the space between day and night, between known and unknown, between here and there. In these liminal spaces, I found magic. I let myself remember what it felt like to play outside as the sunlight faded away. I let myself play in the space between reality and somewhere else, delighting in symphonies of color and bursts of neon brushstrokes. My new paintings of this world illustrate a place filled with color, mystery, and possibility. These paintings show that even here and now, there is beauty to relish in, joy to surrender to, and magic hiding in plain sight."
