Artist statement:
I believe that art is visual storytelling, communicating a needed message, showcasing beliefs, heritage and vision. My work has deliberately evolved to depict the complexity and contrast of life through a combination of mediums, symbolism and surface patterns. I am inspired by creating poignant works of art, that catch the attention of people distracted by everyday life, as a rally-cry to remind us all to focus on what matters most. Intuitively acknowledging the uncertainty of life, fuels my creative mind and heart to keep expressing unedited emotions that positively transform our collective future. "
