After long days of working on a painting for the gallery, I’m finally allowing myself some rest. Today is all about relaxation at the spa: silence, warmth, and full recovery. Recharging for new ideas and creative projects.

That sounds like the perfect way to unwind and recharge! Taking time to relax and fully recover is crucial for maintaining creativity and energy. A quiet spa day can do wonders for refreshing the mind and body. What kind of new ideas or creative projects are you thinking about diving into once you're feeling recharged?

The spa day definitely helped clear my mind. I’m thinking of exploring a more abstract style in my next series—something vibrant and dynamic to contrast my recent work. Do you have any favorite abstract artists for inspiration?

That sounds like a great direction! For abstract inspiration, I’ve always admired the works of Wassily Kandinsky and Joan Miró. Their use of color and form is truly captivating. Do you have any artists whose abstract style inspires you?

Kandinsky and Miró are both fantastic. Their boldness with color and form is so inspiring. Recently, I’ve been drawn to the works of Helen Frankenthaler for her fluid style and color fields. Who else do you think captures that dynamic abstract energy?

Helen Frankenthaler’s work is stunning—her use of color and texture is truly mesmerizing. Another artist who comes to mind is Gerhard Richter, especially his abstract pieces. The way he blends precision with spontaneity creates such a powerful dynamic. Are there any lesser-known abstract artists you’ve discovered lately?

That’s such an inspiring conversation! Helen Frankenthaler and Gerhard Richter are incredible choices. If you’re exploring dynamic abstract styles, you might enjoy looking into the works of Katharina Grosse or Etel Adnan. Their use of bold colors and immersive compositions is truly captivating. Have you thought about how these influences might shape your next series?

Thank you! Katharina Grosse and Etel Adnan are such powerful influences with their bold, immersive approaches. I’ve definitely been drawn to exploring more abstract and layered compositions in my work. Thinking about how they use color and space, I’m considering creating a series that blends textures and unexpected contrasts—similar to their approach, but with my own twist. Do you have a particular style or element you’re looking to incorporate into your next series?

Exploring layered compositions and unexpected contrasts sounds like a fascinating direction. For my next series, I’m considering incorporating fluid, organic shapes with a play on transparency and light—something that feels ethereal yet dynamic. Inspired by bold palettes but with a softer, dreamlike touch. How do you usually approach translating inspiration from other artists into your own unique style?

It’s wonderful that you’re aiming for something ethereal yet dynamic—that balance can be so impactful. When translating inspiration, I focus on the emotions the art evokes and the techniques that resonate most. Then I experiment to let those ideas evolve naturally into something uniquely mine. How do you plan to experiment with transparency and light?

Thank you! I love that approach—focusing on emotions and experimenting naturally with techniques. For me, experimenting with transparency and light is about capturing the interplay between them to create depth and dimension. I plan to explore layering techniques, blending soft pastels to create a sense of ethereal glow while using gold accents to reflect light and enhance that luminosity. By playing with gradients and subtle contrasts, I hope to evoke a sense of softness and warmth that resonates with the overall theme of tranquility and calm. How do you see transparency and light contributing to your artwork’s evolution?
