As an artist, my goal is to explore a wide range of themes and ideas through my work.

From abstract acrylic paintings to collages and resin art, I am constantly experimenting with different mediums and techniques to find new ways of expressing myself.

One of my main interests is in using art as a way to transform and transcend difficult emotions like grief and loneliness I have felt in my life.I believe that art has the power to bring beauty and healing, and I strive to create work that resonates with viewers on a deep emotional level.

In my art, I am drawn to themes of purity and healing, the sacred and the forgotten, and the wild expansion of the imagination. I am fascinated by the idea of capturing fleeting moments and harnessing them in my work, and I hope to create pieces that have a unique energy and presence that can be felt by the viewer.

It’s my vision that by taking one small step towards happiness in our own lives we invite the world to become a better place. Essentially it’s our life’s purpose to be happy and share that with others. I am a guide for others to experience their creative wellness from the inside out. I enjoy relaxing meditations through connecting with nature, learning to love myself by tuning into your natural states of joy, gratitude and abundance, and enjoy life by consuming plant based natural, whole, delicious foods.
