Painting Manifest was about stepping into something new for me. Working with such a big sheet of paper meant I had to move around a lot, and honestly, I just had to go with the flow. Sometimes the layers of paint mixed by accident, sometimes on purpose, and I ended up with this surface that felt alive and purely instinctual. I loved how some colors just barely covered what was underneath, while others really stood out, making you wonder what’s hidden below. As with all of my abstracts, every mark and tiny flaw feels like it tells its own story.
