Last year I published a book about my father, who is bipolar. It’s a deeply personal story of my memories and emotions of growing up with a father who becomes a different person from one day to the next.

I’ve made a series of paintings which are a continuation of this work. Dealing with my father’s condition through abstract shapes. I like to break down the story to its most simplest form. The paintings are a combination of acrylics and oil-stick in a limited color palette.
