Urban Secrets Print

My life as a fine artist was born from the ashes of my previous life: I was a dancer, as my mother always says, from before I could walk. That was everything I was, until the day I broke my back on a snowy mountain. During my recovery, my mother took me to art classes in an effort to help repair my broken heart with the expressive qualities of a new art form. These portraits are the images created by the paint which now seals those cracks in my spirit. I was drawn to portraiture as a symbol – female faces as an outward expression of my inner feminine power which kept me alive. Built into the images of my core female force are the elements of my life that are vital to who I am: the natural world flows through each of the paintings as an image of peace and stillness; a grounding and quieting influence on me, as well as the dancer that is my soul. Urban Secrets blends tranquil nature with my memories of the excited buzz and beauty of exiting the theatre onto a nocturnal city street. In Dreamer, I show my soul, which still dances into the cosmos when I close my eyes; while Fire Dancer represents the phoenix flames I have risen out of, melting the icy cold breaks which happened the night of my accident, allowing me to live again.
