It was a big transition. I had moved from Michigan (my home state) numerous times before, but this felt different, somehow. I was overwhelmed. I had visited Seattle in the past because I was interested in the University of Washington, but I ultimately chose San Francisco for college. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece was originally a gestural abstract painting I made in 2020 and brought with me to Seattle. I decided to experiment with it, because the style of the painting didn't feel \"me\" anymore.  The base of the painting was big, expressive brush strokes in shades of grey and yellow ochre.  I began my experiment with a drippy black paint and began draping the painting in organic shapes. It morphed into an abstract cityscape, and finally, the painting came alive, feeling more aligned with my architectural abstract style. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI named it Turning the Kaleidoscope because I find it so interesting how my style keeps evolving every single year, and although my inspiration stays the same, my perception of it changes, like how you turn a kaleidoscope, the shapes in it (and my art) come out in a different variation every time. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExhibitions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalm Springs Modernism Show 2026\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrganized Chaos\u003c\/strong\u003e - Solo Exhibition - Women United Art Movement (2024)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eShipping: \u003c\/b\u003eThis painting comes ready to hang on your wall, carefully packed in a box meant for shipping artwork.
