Each and every woman has aspirations. These dreams prompt us to step outside of our comfort zones and move forward into the next phase of our lives, asking us to adopt new philosophies and worldviews. Along with new perspectives, however, comes the need for transformation. We find ourselves needing to come to amends with feelings that we may have shied away from in the past: vanity, confidence, self-love, integrity. Knowing you are worthy of those feelings is the first step in realizing your dreams. My series of black and white paintings are portraits of women that expose how we navigate our own path forward while grappling with these taboo feelings. Whether that’s staring down a seemingly impossible path with newfound confidence or owning the determination to make the next move, each painting is a window to your goals. These portraits have been painted on paper with black and white watercolor and black acrylic background, featuring vibrant bursts of color on the cheeks and lip. This color represents the particular attribute explored in that portrait. Though life may seem at times to be black and white, color and all that it represents serves as a reminder of the dream within.

My art practice is not imagined but a matter of being. It is an inner call that paints my story as a woman, vocalized through portraits and figures. Women are the protagonists of my work, with a reflection on human rights, empowerment, and the ability to break through barriers. My women are strong characters who have an energy of raw emotion and are not afraid to expose their true selves. Female figures manifested in quirky personas, showcasing their unique identities and attitudes, are at the core of my work. I want to celebrate these women, showing their confidence and ability to push through the norms of ordinary life. I believe growth begins when we escape our comfort zone. That awkward moment where challenging the unknown, and facing it head-on, propels us with strength and perseverance. Color plays a pivotal role in my work. With saturated and intense colors, the viewer can be captivated by the bold females in their glory. They live in vivid fantasies, surrounded by unusual objects and symbols that reflect the characteristics of their story and my own. The disparities of race or color undefine the portraits, contoured with heavy brushstrokes and transparent faces. My encounters with different cultures have inspired me to create a modern woman as a kaleidoscope of worldly thoughts, emotions, and experiences. These canvases are a liberation. They speak freely from the heart, with women who follow their dreams and are anything but ordinary.
