Here is an article from London about the artist
>
> Artist Statement
>
> Part 1
> I paint the chapters of my life. I am very connected to the living world as an empath and lightworker. I love my life, nature and I'm very spiritual, believing everything happens for a reason. My creations identify the painter as someone that sees their organic life as beautiful, natural, symbolic, and at times tumultuous. Similarly, I am knowledgeable and have a deep appreciation for the painting Masters and their techniques to which I pay homage.
>
> I want the viewer of my art to be captivated by my use of beautiful bold colors. I have been able to accomplish this dramatic color effect through the use of a new line of paints called Pebeo. Pebeo can be transparent like stained glass as in "Ode to Monet," a landscape of where I live.
>
> Part 2
> In addition to my attention to vivid color, I am very concerned with the viewers' internal experience of my paintings. I am trying to provoke an internal analysis of my work by prompting the viewer to ponder such questions as :
>
> •What do I see?
>
> •What prompted the artist to paint this picture?
>
> •What is the meaning or message behind this painting?
>
> •What is the symbolism that is represented in this artwork?
>
> Part 3 As in the "Ode to Van Gogh and Ophelia" painting, the viewer would answer, "I see water ," but then wonder "Who is Ophelia?". After researching that Ophelia is the woman who died in the water, they look at the art again to see that it is from the angle under the water looking up through the water.The viewer continues to analyze and wonder why the art was made like this, as if to say that the artist felt like she was drowning in life at times.This was after a suicide of a loved one.
>
> Finally, the viewer interprets my symbols as in the surreal "Ode to Frida Georgia Marilyn Madonna and Jackson". As one looks, they see it is more than a blood red full moon, bleeding iris, bleeding hearts and fog hiding the and pinheads. It's more than a flower as the main shape takes on Madonna or Marilyn dancing among men beautifully with hearts on stage and in the spotlight. I want the viewer to spot the clues and have an aesthetic experience as they discover it symbolizes a pained artist telling of a past broken relationship hidden under the guise of a larger than life beauty. It is in the portrayal of significant events and experiences for my personal life, through my paintings, that I attempt to offer hope and comfort to those who are suffering in silence.

I use many different mediums, such as oil,clay, acrylics, and pastels. I believe that working in a single medium is restrictive to my artistic process. Each idea manifests in its own individual style.
My latest venture was to create a life size 3-d sculpture pictured here created in 2018.
