MEET THE ARTIST

Art was a means of communicating without speaking when I was young and painfully shy. Figurative elements have always found their way into my work, regardless of the subject matter. Maybe it's because for so long I struggled with body image. I was too tall, too skinny, too fat. I finally figured out that I don't have to play by the rules, that I don't have to listen to what is whispered in the ears of women everywhere.

​I discovered that I am amazing. I discovered I like myself.

Layers of torn papers, drawings, and poems create visual interest and intrigue before the paint ever touches the boards. I make these vibrant pieces in the hope that they empower other women to see their own sense of beautiful.
