TROPICAL TRAFFIC
Acrylic mixed media memory scape on wood
30" x 24” | 76 cm x 61 cm
I loved visiting Taiwan, it is a gorgeous, bright, colorful, bustling country, especially the urban areas. The roads in cities like Taipei and Kaohsiung are filled with every kind of vehicle and tons and tons of scooters, sometimes carrying a whole family including all their groceries for a week!
My visit to Taiwan was way too short, it was a whirlwind of new experiences and impressions. I was so sad when I had to leave because, as always, the thought of: “I may never come here again”, was running through my mind.
This painting helps me keep the memories of this beautiful country close to my heart. Even if I never get to visit Taiwan again, through this painting, I will always carry a piece of it with me.
My paintings help me to stay connected to the places I had to leave behind and I hope they will evoke similar memories for you and inspire you to reconnect to the beauty of the world around you.
I want to help you relive happy memories of familiar places and inspire you to visit and explore destinations you would otherwise never have thought to visit. I invite you to be nostalgic with me and (re)-discover the world through my eyes.
These pieces convey the heart and soul of the city, I am fascinated by the urban landscape and the people that populate it. I love that unique viewpoint you have as a traveler, you start noticing the most mundane, everyday objects. These essential elements make up the living, breathing and evolving ecosystem of a city.
In my work I combine my love of photography, painting and travel. I merge many photographs into a singular image that, at first glance, reflects reality, but there is a little mystery there. I encourage you to explore, let your mind wander and your imagination run free!

IS THE ARTWORK SIGNED?
Yes, all original artworks are signed on the front in the lower right corner. They also have their title, date, artist name and a signed certificate of authenticity on the back.
IS THIS PAINTING READY TO HANG?
Yes all my wood panel pieces are all ready to hang, most have a wire on the back or, for larger pieces a set of eyelets that enable flush mounting (flush mounting is highly recommended for pieces larger than 48”x36”). My paintings are not framed but the sides are painted black so they show beautifully without a frame. If you prefer I can arrange framing for you, fill out the form below for a quote. Because framing adds weight and volume during shipping you may prefer to have your local framer do the work.
