ABOUT

Art is an explorative odyssey with no boundaries. To me, art is about capturing these moments, so that they are frozen in time. The moments that I depict are ones that capture the warmth and vibrance of relationships. To impress this effect on the viewer, I work with rich, earthy colors and with subjects that celebrate simple emotions woven to form complex bonds. I aim to put a little bit of myself in each brushstroke, and for my work to make people dream, think and smile. My paintings and photography are both a celebration of life.

I dream of a world where there is a strong sense of global community in which we can all help lift each other up…where men and women are equal in every way. In a world filled with hatred and violence, I like to travel back to a simpler, more innocent time from my childhood, and celebrate love, happiness and all things good and pure. My art showcases a utopian world - a world where women can and will always walk hand in hand with a man, a world where there is no judgment or differences based on gender, race or faith.
