"Inevitable" is a mesmerizing exploration of layered composition and the dynamic interaction between different media. Painted in 2016, this work combines watercolor, ink, and acrylic on textured polypropylene, resulting in a rich, multi-dimensional piece. The composition features vibrant swirls and pools of color that seem to be in constant motion, as the poured acrylic interacts with the underlying ink, pulling it up and creating blurred, ethereal effects. This interplay between the media creates a sense of depth and fluidity, drawing the viewer into the swirling chaos of the painting.

The use of untouched white borders around the composition further emphasizes the idea of contained chaos. The borders serve as a visual boundary, holding the tumultuous energy within the frame, while also providing a stark contrast to the vibrant, layered interior. The tension between the ordered edges and the dynamic center highlights the balance between control and spontaneity, a theme that runs throughout the piece. "Inevitable" captures the viewer’s attention with its intricate layers and the way the different media work together to create a sense of both harmony and unpredictability.

The painting’s title, "Inevitable," suggests a sense of fate or destiny, perhaps reflecting the idea that despite the apparent randomness and chaos within the composition, there is an underlying order or inevitability to the way the colors and forms interact. This piece invites viewers to contemplate the relationship between control and chaos, order and disorder, and to find beauty in the unpredictable patterns that emerge from the interplay of different artistic elements.
