Brutalist Sunset (acrylic on canvas, 52 x 65 cm, 2025) is a revisiting of a previous work, Broken Sunset. In this work, I am excited about parallel rhythms, polyrhythms, and the freer, messy brushwork.

Brutalist Heavens, acrylic in canvas, 78 x 65 cm. 2025. I am enjoying making these immensely, the way my eye keeps getting snagged by the oscillating patterns verges on cruelty. These works do take a lot of patience to make because they demand a very high degree of trial and error.

Untitled, acrylic on canvas, 78 x 65 cm. 2025. Excited to be finding new ways to bring organic and geometric forms together in a manner analogous to how I experience the world around me.

Dearest Bskys, I’m dragging my feet here but I wanted to mention that I am taking a general break from social media, so I only peek at this occasionally for now. Will get more active soon.

Untitled 5, From the Abstract Sculpture Series, acrylic on canvas, 2023. An image of a sculpture that hasn’t arrived yet; the conditions for one to precipitate.
