Abstract Painting — Veiled Blue
An abstract canvas dominated by deep cobalt and turquoise forms partially obscured behind a curtain of dripped white paint. Warmer reds and earth tones peek through at the edges, while the vertical drips create a veil that both reveals and conceals the imagery beneath.

I was chasing the feeling of something glimpsed through rain or frosted glass — present but never fully resolved. The poured white drips became a screen I had to paint behind and through, which meant surrendering some control over what stayed visible. That tension between the bold blue underpainting and the veil on top is exactly what kept me interested. It taught me that obscuring an image can make it more compelling than showing it outright.
