The juror selected my painting, Orange Invasion, to be in the October 2021 Open Exhibit

Orange Invasion

A vibrant, kinetic exploration of form and texture, Orange Invasion sweeps across wood paneling in a surge of bold color and layered media. Dynamic waves of fiery orange and bright yellow slice diagonally through structured blue-patterned towers, deep magenta verticals, and rich wood-grain grounding. Playful abstract figures—including a stylized cat-like silhouette and expressive, outstretched hands—emerge from the vivid composition, creating a surreal narrative of energy disrupting space. Rich with mixed-media textures, geometric accents, and whimsical line work, the piece balances graphic structure with unpredictable, organic movement.
