The Color of Words is rooted in the physical ritual of painting—mark by mark, layer by layer—where language dissolves and re-forms as color, surface, and motion. What begins as inspiration from poets and wordsmiths becomes something less fixed, more felt: a vibration carried through the body into the work. These paintings hold that exchange between the intangible and the material, where meaning is not described but sensed, and color holds what words cannot. They are offerings of gratitude shaped through process, where the act of making becomes a form of listening.
