A Discernable Degree of Brightness
Refractions is my first collection of painting created and completed outside my home country. While painting, it did make me think about what course of directions should my art take given that I'm in a new place. Possibilities could be endless. It's both exciting and could be worrisome.
Refractions: my recent collection of painting in acrylic, phosphorescent paint (strontium aluminate, europium, dysprosium), reflective powder, iridescent paint, interference paint on canvas

It's not a cockroach, it's a cricket!!! A lucky cricket.
A painting or any art is a transfer of the artist's energy to their physical or maybe digital work. A token.
The effects of light on my works can be difficult to capture in one still image. A lot of details like reflected light and color is missing when I photograph them for documentation.
On top of the complexity is the second image generated when it gets dark or UV (blacklight) is applied.
Those complexities could push me to my next medium instead, perhaps diving into the digital realms?
