"Electric" - Energy doesn’t have to be loud

48 x 60 | Acrylic and Epoxy Resin on Canvas


There are paintings that sit quietly in a room… and then there are paintings that hum.

Electric is the latter.


At first glance, you’re pulled in by a field of rich purples layered with flashes of pink and subtle currents of blue. The surface feels alive. Not loud, not chaotic—but charged.



Like something just beneath the surface is moving, shifting, breathing.

There’s a depth created through acrylic and epoxy resin that gives the piece a glass-like intensity, almost as if you’re looking into energy rather than just at paint.

And yet, what makes Electric so compelling is the tension it holds.


Purple has always carried a dual nature. It calms. It settles the mind.


It creates space. But in this piece, it also activates. The tones don’t just sit still—they vibrate. There’s a quiet intensity that builds the longer you look at it. It’s the kind of energy that doesn’t shout—it resonates.

Beneath the upper layers, darker blacks and deep blues anchor the composition. They give the painting weight. Structure. A grounding force that allows the brighter tones to rise, expand, and glow without drifting away. You feel both lifted and held at the same time.

Then comes the defining moment—the signature black line work.

These lines don’t just outline the painting. They reveal it. They trace the movement of the layers beneath, almost like mapping energy pathways across the canvas. They bring clarity to the chaos, intention to the flow. It’s where the piece sharpens, where emotion meets structure. Where instinct becomes design.

At 48 inches wide by 60 inches tall, Electric isn’t meant to disappear into a space. It transforms it. Whether it’s the focal point of a room or part of a larger collection, it carries a presence that’s hard to ignore—but easy to live with.


Because at its core, this painting does something rare.


It calms you…while quietly charging you up.


It’s a reminder that energy doesn’t always have to be loud to be powerful. Sometimes, it hums.
