Artist Statement
I paint unapologetic women. Unapologetically. Without Compromise. Because we all deserve to shine.
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. Who knew?
Capturing the twist of a hip, the lovely line of a neck frees me. My figures are real and truthful. Curves are celebrated. I paint moments, hoping the viewer embraces the beauty we all feel inside.
LOVE YOUR BODY. PERIOD
Please wait, it may take sometime ...
