Abstract & Experimental

This section explores artwork created through experimentation with form, line, shape, and visual ideas. These pieces often begin as simple sketches or concepts and evolve into abstract compositions that focus on emotion, movement, and interpretation rather than literal representation. Many of the works here come from sketchbooks and creative exercises where I allow ideas to develop freely. Some experiments become finished pieces, while others serve as the starting point for future projects in illustration, collage, or design.

Abstract Vulture Studies: Expressive Line Drawings Inspired by Form and Motion

These abstract vulture studies began as an exploration of shape, movement, and personality through minimal linework. Created with flowing marker lines and layered color edges, the pieces reduce the bird down to its essential forms while still capturing its posture, weight, and strange elegance. I’ve always loved vultures artistically. They’re awkward, dramatic, intelligent, and somehow both ugly and beautiful at the same time. Their hunched silhouettes, stretched wings, and exaggerated necks create natural abstract shapes … Read more

Expressive Color Studies: Layered Watercolor and Digital Composition

These pieces began as a series of small watercolor experiments—each one painted individually on circular sections of paper. There was no fixed plan going in. The goal was simple: let the paint move, react, and settle on its own terms. Working this way removes control at the start. Color bleeds, edges form unpredictably, and textures develop in ways that can’t be forced. Some areas bloom softly, others create hard lines or unexpected patterns. Each circle … Read more

From Marker Sketch to Modern Geometry: Turning Hand-Drawn Lines into Digital Abstract Art

Many of my geometric pieces start in the simplest way possible: paper, markers, rulers, and a handful of circle templates scattered across my desk. No grand plan, no complicated concept—just lines, curves, and shapes beginning to interact with one another. What I enjoy most about this process is the balance between structure and spontaneity. The tools create order—perfect arcs, measured angles, repeating circles—but the way those elements intersect is often completely intuitive. I draw a … Read more

Tiny Canvases, Big Ideas: My Hilma-Inspired Miniature Abstract Paintings

Sometimes the most interesting creative experiments happen on the smallest surfaces. These tiny 3 x 3 inch abstract paintings were created during a short burst of studio experimentation where I focused on color, symbolism, and simple geometric forms. The inspiration behind the series comes from the bold visual language of Hilma af Klint, whose work explored spiritual symbolism, geometry, and color relationships long before abstract art became widely recognized. While these paintings aren’t direct copies … Read more

Floppy Flowers: When Shapes Refuse to Behave

Every once in a while, I make something that feels like it has absolutely no interest in following rules. This is one of those pieces. Floppy Flowers started as a simple geometric exploration—circles, curves, repeated shapes, a color palette that felt balanced and intentional. But somewhere along the way, it stopped behaving like a clean, structured design and started leaning into something a little… weirder. The forms began to feel soft. Flexible. Almost alive. Not … Read more

Backward Thinking (and the One That Escaped the Floor)

Every once in a while, I step away from faces and let the rest of the body take over. This was one of those moments. These two pieces came out of the same session—same mindset, same flow, same refusal to behave. One became Backward Thinking. The other… just kind of slid off into existence as a body stretched out on the ground like it gave up halfway through making sense. Backward Thinking This one is … Read more

Abstract Geometry & Modern Form: From Intuitive Sketches to Bauhaus-Inspired Vector Design

These two pieces sit on opposite ends of the same creative process—one driven by instinct, the other refined through structure, but both rooted in simple shapes and bold decisions. The first composition began the way many of my abstract pieces do: fast, loose, and completely unplanned. Originally created with markers, the shapes built on each other through repetition and balance rather than intention. It wasn’t until the piece was finished that any recognizable idea emerged—something … Read more

Abstract Fluttering Bird: A Motion Art Experiment in Simplicity

This piece started as a very simple, hand-drawn abstract bird created with markers. The shape is intentionally geometric—reduced down to sharp angles and flat planes, with just a few line details to suggest form and texture. There was no complexity in the design. That was the point. What made this piece interesting came later, when I turned that static shape into a short motion experiment you can view on Pinterest. By separating the illustration into … Read more

Abstract Portraits from the Sketchpad

Over the years I’ve filled many sketchbooks with quick drawings of people. Not detailed portraits—just simple line work that tries to capture a moment or emotion. These abstract portraits came from one of those sketchpads. I started drawing them many years ago while experimenting with how little information a face needs in order to communicate a feeling. A few lines for the eyes, a curve for the mouth, the angle of a head—suddenly a personality … Read more
