About
This oil painting emerged from a blend of imagination and experience—a dreamscape of the jungle intertwined with the grounded world of the kelp forest, inspired by my footage from Catalina Island.
This piece became a bridge as I prepared for my journey to Costa Rica, knowing the next series would come from the trip.
As the first in this collection, I felt myself wanting to hold onto the luminosity of the Prism series, yet I knew I had to dive into deeper, darker tones—embracing the unknown to create space for growth and transformation.
A reflection of the journey ahead.
