“The process of making art starts with an abstract memory or feeling that sparks inspiration, leading to a colorful, gestural exploration. As the work progresses, my conscious thoughts and personal symbols emerge, often through groups or lone swimmers—metaphors for navigating life. My art delves into themes like identity, connection, empowerment, grief, loss, and stillness. The shift from abstraction to representation helps clarify my creative vision.” –Marti Koehler
