Artist Statement: “Although this tiny water gun doesn't hold much, it still holds memories of plenty of water gun fights with my siblings and neighborhood friends. Impromptu water fights might include a hose, water balloons, water guns, or whatever you could get your hands on.”
Merging classical still life traditions with trompe l’œil and magical realism, this body of work bridges formal beauty and playful nostalgia. Through compositions featuring vintage toys, retro kitchenware, and sweet confections, the paintings tap into universal childhood memories—transforming everyday playthings and corner-store treats into quirky, evocative visual stories that reignite the inner child.
