I am not formally trained so my inspiration comes from life and all that it brings emotionally, spiritually and physically. My Series have been inspired through personal inner struggles and successes as well as my journey in this lifetime. I would say my work comes from a place of intuition and emotion. There are times I will be listening to music or reflecting, and a brief vision of a painting will come to me. At that point it’s my inner emotion that brings the art to life on the canvas. Once I start a painting the music that I listen too amplifies that emotion which works its way onto the canvas. With each painting I listen to a particular song over and over as I paint and name the piece after that song title. I have been told from several collectors that this has created a deeper emotional connection to the painting after they have listened to the song.

My artistic style consists primarily of Mixed Media and Abstract mediums. I love to experiment with various mediums, texture and paint. I use acrylic, fabric, tissue paper, mesh, spray paint, ink, oil pastel, chalk and most recently I have been experimenting with cold wax.
