INTERMITTEN ENLIGHTENMENT PAPER PRINT

This piece marks a significant transition in my artistic journey. It began as a simple sunset but evolved into something entirely different, a surreal vision: a leaf floating in outer space. As I worked, I felt a deep pull toward fantasy and surrealism. A quiet inner voice encouraged me to add small doorways, that detail was unexpected which ultimately gave the piece its unique identity. Created over the course of five years, this work became a slow, meditative process. I returned to it in phases, each time bringing a new vision and emotion. In many ways, it mirrors the state of my life at the time, periods of feeling lost, with brief enlightening moments of clarity.  I was slowly finding myself again, one brushstroke at a time.
