I found my passion in doing large abstract metal wall sculptures using one of my favorite tools, a welder. My canvas is intricately woven pieces of metal, intertwined into a beautiful chaos that lets the mind see what it wants to see. My work is unique because I bring a feminine touch to a masculine trade. I am a self taught action painter, drawing inspiration from the music I listen to while I create my masterpieces. Born and raised in Calabasas , California and having my Dutch mother and English father take me to every major museum in Europe every summer vacation when we would stay out there, has had an influence on me that you can see in my work today, with Jackson Pollack, Salvador Dali and Auguste Rodin's work all particularly standing out to me. I never really knew that I had this artistic streak until I began to work for my friend and fellow metal artist, Omar Wysong. One day after cutting out the patterns for his steel aguave designs, I went to throw away the scrap metal left over and I saw something beautiful in the way the pieces fell on the floor. So I asked if I could use the scraps that were being thrown away so I can make something for my freshly painted white walls, as I had just been fixing up my house and needed something for my bare walls. When I put together something and after he taught me how to weld it, I found that I have a talent for this.I started experimenting with all kinds of colors and found that I kept getting inspired to create something new, different and unique, and I really haven't been able to stop myself ever since. I feel a compulsive need to keep creating and it gives me great satisfaction when I am finished with a piece. Since discovering this hidden talent that I didn't even know I had, it has changed everything for me. I no longer feel the emptiness of that dreary mundane existence of an unfavorable past and no light at the end of the tunnel for the future. Instead I find myself getting up every day with purpose and direction and hope. I am filled with gratitude and I am filled with satisfaction as I gaze back at something I have created. It has awakened an incessant need to keep creating and keep evolving in my art. I currently live in Los Angeles and have three beautiful kids and for once I am comfortable in my own skin and feel I am where I am supposed to be and doing what I am supposed to be doing.
