Original abstract painting by Portland, Oregon artist Mark Dunst.

Through the expressive and formal language of painting and drawing, my art practice explores the messy, imperfect, transitory and ultimately beautiful struggle to find what exists in the space between our thoughts. In an ongoing process often hampered by fear and doubt, an internal strife begins an honest and uncomfortable conversation where, when truly listening, one can learn about selflessness from their ego, strength from their vulnerabilities, and compassion from their judgements.
