Artist Statement
In my painting process I have learned to overcome adversity & embrace risk & vulnerability. Physically & emotionally, I feel empowered, liberated from self-imposed constraints.

In my painting process I have learned to overcome adversity & embrace risk & vulnerability. Physically & emotionally, I feel empowered, liberated from self-imposed constraints. This transformation in myself has provoked new techniques & colour palettes. My paintings have a new look & feel. There has been an organic evolution in my style. My colours have become more dynamic, my marks bolder, twisting, curving, spiraling & slashing in all directions across the canvas using credit cards, brushes & sponges. I have found a way to express my inner emotions. Creative energy has been released that has been pent up in me I have let myself go & let it flow out of me onto the canvas. I have discovered my true self. Painting has become the anchor in my ever-evolving life.
