"Though art and painting have been lifelong companions, including professional work as a mural artist and decorative paint finishes artisan for 15 years, and for 20+ years as an interior designer, I am now fully focused on establishing a consistent personal art practice. This new chapter is dedicated to further developing a unique visual language and cohesive body of work. For me, making art is the most direct form of non-verbal communication; a visceral response to my observations, memories, and present experience, whether external or internal. It is an attempt to record, capture, interpret, or convey either a state of mind, emotion/s, aspects of myself, or simply a moment in time in a particular place. The inherent challenge in translating these experiences successfully into tangible artworks which engage the viewer is what fuels my ongoing artistic exploration. My practice embraces both figurative and abstract styles, allowing the initial inspiration – whether a chosen subject, a lingering memory, or a powerful feeling – to dictate the artistic approach and the choice of medium."
