As I explored further, experimenting with shapes, colors, and organic lines, I naturally ventured into abstract watercolor batik painting. While working with wax layers, I noticed that wax drips and edges weren’t straight, and I began to embrace the beauty of imperfection. This approach resonated with the Japanese philosophy of Wabi-sabi, which celebrates the beauty of the imperfect and incomplete. I enjoyed allowing free-form lines and shapes to emerge while infusing my emotions and feelings into the colors, letting them interact on the paper. While creating Wabi-sabi-inspired abstract works, my love of vibrant colors led my abstracts to develop their own distinctive, colorful style.
