Elegance never goes out of style. For centuries, the Japanese obi has been admired for its beauty, balance, and craftsmanship. Inspired by this timeless garment, these paintings transform its symmetry, graceful movement, and enduring elegance into contemporary abstract compositions of color and form.

Acrylic mixed-media paintings finished with a high-gloss artist's resin topcoat on two-inch-deep gallery boxes; select works incorporate metallic elements.
