Where Art Meets Psychology

I’ve always felt that if I hadn’t become an artist, I would have become a psychologist.
My interest in the human mind later combined with my work in experiential design, where I learned to create experiences people could actively participate in.
 

Introspective Play grew from bringing these worlds together. I wanted paintings to become more than images — more like maps for the mind, filled with symbols, questions, and paths to explore.
 

The work also reflects my love of analog play: drawing cards, answering prompts, and connecting without a screen. With Introspective Play, the painting becomes the visual world, while cards and prompts invite the viewer to participate, reflect, and bring their own experience into the work.
 

The first project in the series is Celestial Bodies, where twelve zodiac signs become twelve psychological archetypes.
I also paired each sign with a symbolic birth flower, adding another layer of botanical meaning to the painting.
