Tempest VII - High-Performance Smartwatch with Heart Rate Monitor, GPS & Waterproof Design for Fitness & Outdoor Adventures

Watercolor and gouache on birch panel.

The Tempest series reflects the stages of a storm—three families of paintings that come together as a trinity. Using raw birch panels with watercolor and gouache, natural forces like water, air, and gravity shape the work.

“In my art practice, I strive for the experience of being fully present, where intuition and emotion guide my creative process without conscious thought. My work revolves around the theme of atmosphere, drawing inspiration from the ever-changing and dramatic forces of nature, such as clouds that appear and disappear seemingly out of nothingness.”
