Modus Ponen is a collection of abstract expressionist paintings that convey emotion and movement through the use of colour. Composed of two small and two larger pieces, each work is created with acrylics on cardboard using a colour palette that includes golden yellow, amber, burgundy caramel, black, ruddy violet, umber, livid, and shocking pink. The resulting effect is a harmonious, vibrant, and flecked display of colour.

The use of color, texture, and movement to express emotion and inner experience is reminiscent of the language employed by artists associated with abstract expressionim. This influence is particularly evident in Modus Ponen's use of color to create a sense of depth and complexity.

The smaller works; Adrift and Unrecalled, employ light, dappled colors and layered compositions to convey introspection and self-reflection. The other paintings, Shrouded and Modus Ponen, utilise deep burgundy caramel, black, and a range of colors to create a sense of mystery, concealment, and emotional complexity.
