This collection was inspired by gardens of the south. As I was creating these pieces, I wanted to put more energy into my paint application with bold marks, splatter, and thick paint application. I allowed myself to play and push my work to be more creative and expressive. I was inspired by the women of abstract expressionism and my paint application was influenced by Joan Mitchell. I found this collection exciting as it grew and I hope you'll enjoy these paintings as much as I enjoyed creating them!
