My built up textures and layers to lend a mystery to the stories that went before. The abstract ethereal feminine forms serve as a devotional act, a gift to the viewer to peel pack and reflect on their own stories and trajectories. They represent our physical and metaphorical personal journeys of healing and traveling from one place to another for safety, adventure, and ultimately finding identity and a collective community.
Given the daily chaos of world events, I continue to strive to create beauty and joy. I look forward to welcoming you into my studio!
