Waiting Backstage

Sometimes the backstage is more interesting than the stage.

Freeze
2026 · Acrylic and oil on canvas · 16 × 20 in.

Somewhere between still life and emotional debris.

Oil, bodies, shadows, scattered objects—
everything feels slightly unstable, as if the room remembers something before I do.

Swift Rise to Nobility
2026
Acrylic and oil on canvas

Everyone seems to understand the situation.

No further explanation is needed.

Agave
2026
Acrylic and oil on canvas
16 × 20 in.

Two figures standing near the flowers,
as if they were waiting for a role to begin.

Something about the scene feels composed,
slightly theatrical,
and quietly unstable.

He didn’t fall in love with his reflection.

He fell into the illusion around it.

The water here is not a lake anymore.

It feels closer to a constructed dream —
something seductive,
bright,
and slightly unstable.

Painting changed while being painted.

A Blonde Wig with Rabbit Ears
2026
Acrylic and oil on canvas
122 × 152 cm (48 × 60 in.)

Many people’s first response to this painting is:
“elegant.”

But the longer you stay with it,
the more unstable it becomes.

The figure keeps shifting.
So does the space.

Seeking Rabbit Hole
2026
Acrylic and oil on canvas



The braid keeps extending —
almost becoming a line.

It connects parts,
and pulls the eye away.

The body holds still,
but this line keeps going.

Things don’t fully align.
They just coexist.

What holds a space in place—
and what quietly breaks it?

2026
Acrylic and oil on canvas
40 × 50 in

Part of the “Dogs of Dark” series, this work situates space not as a passive backdrop but as an active structural condition. The figure, the animal, and the surrounding environment form a shifting configuration in which spatial order is continuously unsettled and reconstituted.

Rather than opposing one another, control and instability coexist within the same pictorial field. Gestures, gazes, and spatial alignments slip and realign, producing a state in which the image remains suspended—never fully fixed, always in the process of becoming.
