“The thoughts you dwell on constantly will shape your mind. The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts.”

-Marcus Aurelius

Our mind can choose which pathways to walk in our brain. The more we choose a specific path, the easier it becomes to mentally walk that path. This is the idea behind the maze painting series. We are affected by the chemicals in our brains of course, but it is possible to control those chemicals to a certain extent. We can take prescription drugs or supplements, we can adjust our diets and routines, and we can choose which of our thoughts and moods to dwell in. Happiness may be a result of our circumstances, but joy can be a choice.

This painting series is an attempt to create abstract representations of moods, neurotransmitters, and concepts from modern neurology.
