Artist Statement
My art is an expression of spiritual ideas provided by guidance from my awakened, lively soul. My purpose is to create paintings filled with vibrant energy and sparkling light. I translate my spirit-inspired feelings into deep emotions and energy that I convey through color and texture. It is very important for my artistic creativity that I am truly connected to my truth as well as fully grounded as this allows me to express these emotions through my painting tools onto the canvas.
I seek to evoke happiness, a sense of mystery and wonder, and contemplation in every person who looks at my paintings. As an artist I wish to move and uplift people to a state of calmness and serenity. This state of tranquility enables viewers to put aside life’s challenges and fears for even a few moments, and freely move into the light with love.

Estranged Spaces
Often times, we become arrested, perplexed, or fixated with the complexity of landscapes transformed by the effects of time, place, inhabitants and memory. Landscapes which act as symbols of both familiarity and estrangement. The fragility of land as a remnant of what once was, once suffered, once flourished. Exterior and interior spaces embody presence and agency. Blurred boundaries between home and the unknown, which strives to make seen the unseen. This is the pulse of our works in “Estranged Spaces”, which draws from cross-cultural examinations of time, place, culture, identity and community. A demonstration of artistry intended to inspire discourse about the trajectory of environmental changes, and its correlation to past and present existence.
