My creativity begins with an appreciation of nature and for the beauty in the everyday, often reflecting my emotions and memories and interwoven with more idyllic and imagined elements of the environment.
My art recollects memories of time and place. I paint from an emotional point of reference and am very aware of utilizing imagery I have a connection to. My art is not obviously personal, not obviously feminist, not obviously environmental, but in a way, it is all of those…
My desire is to reflect and raise awareness to the fragility of nature and the human spirit and the delicate coexistence of both.
