I make conceptual abstract artwork that reminds people they are not alone.
My mixed media art is influenced by a balance of opposites. They speak frankly about feelings that are often contained. Minimalist collages represent complex feelings, literary art is combined with visual art, and subtle messages leave a strong impression. Where large art often intimidates, mine draws viewers in with its intimacy.
My artworks are often simple but creating them helps me relax and I try to convey this in my work and share it with others.
I want to provide moments of quiet understanding that feel like a much-needed hug.
I make the art I needed at a time when I felt misunderstood. My artworks are deliberately open to interpretation and often look different from different angles, mimicking the way society reacts differently to emotional wellbeing and mental health. Authenticity is important to me, so concepts are based on real feelings rather than a superficiality. My artwork depicts my empathy.
I hope that my honesty will help me make genuine, heart-felt connections with others.
Being hopeful about my artistic journey keeps me continually advocating for a better, more inclusive, future for my children, while my compassion keeps me passing kindness forward any way I can.
