From Kumi: “The visual experiences that move me are color, composition, and luminosity, are in nature around me. I feel that I am grounded in observation of it. I hope that the translation of what I observe turns into color, shapes, and brush strokes, and it is my wish to evoke the spiritual through the visual. I embrace, with gratitude, those artists who have given me gifts in the form of inspiration, influence, and permission. I have learned and keep learning from their art.”
