Her energetic work explores the use of bold colours, creative texture and is emotionally free in style. She has a special place in her heart for all things nature , intimate moments figuratively, including impressionistic florals and landscapes. Many of her works have a macro perspective or birds eye view of her subjects and the use of colour is powerful. She has a formal technical education in interior architecture and graphic design. Painting impressionistically is her passion. Her education and natural creativity led the way to give her confidence in reestablishing her fine arts practice.

ARTIST’S STATEMENT

Art for me is both therapeutic and an ongoing way to creatively challenge myself. Painting is a release of emotion, a letting go into a flow where I can lose myself into the colours, textures shapes and forms with no inhibitions. It gives me so much pleasure to share my art with others allowing them to feel or connect with my work. Painting nature as I feel it, catching a small moment that is relatable through a macro lens, using extraordinary colour and texture is my way to communicate how I see the world while encouraging the audience to see and feel it in their own way.
