Artwork Description

Caprice

36.0 x 36.0 inches

In Caprice, I embrace the unpredictable nature of inspiration itself—wild, fluid, and untamed. This painting is a meditation on spontaneity and the mysterious rhythms that move us from within. The upward surge of light and color suggests a sudden breakthrough, like emotion or memory erupting from the unconscious. I worked intuitively, letting the forms take shape as if guided by the forces of water and fire. The swirling blues evoke the ocean’s depth and fluidity, while sparks of gold and orange hint at inner illumination. This contrast mirrors the interplay of chaos and clarity, turmoil and revelation. Caprice is not about control, but release—an invitation to surrender to the moment, to the beauty of chance, and to the unseen currents that carry us toward transformation.
