Because work is obtained from ordered molecular motion, the amount of entropy is also a measure of the molecular disorder, or randomness, of a system. The concept of entropy provides deep insight into the direction of spontaneous change for many everyday phenomena [1]. These paintings proclaim that the ripple effect does not always happen according to an obvious sequence of events. Often, we see consequences of random actions that happened spontaneously and unconsciously but brought about significant changes to life experience. These abstract works completed by layering paint, soft pastels, glue and varnishes represent chaos that led to an expression of freedom and fluidity. According to an online community Social Media Today: The ripple effect in sociology can be observed how social interactions can affect situations not directly related to the initial interaction [2].\u00a0 Therefore, these paintings reflect the artist\u2019s experience of social interactions that did not results in an expected outcome, instead, a new opportunity appeared and evolved into a bewildering social scenario.\u00a0 \u00a0 References [1] Drake, G.W.F.
