My body of work pays homage to the sweet disorder that surrounds me in what I call the interior landscapes of the busy home. Through my paintings I come to terms with my demons; the demons being the flux and chaos of housework and motherhood, common to so many women’s lives. I face them and befriend them: the befriending has grown into a powerful labour of love and appreciation for these untamed landscapes within the home. With my art I capture this domestic wilderness that reveals all the activity and play that is too often tidied up and civilized before it can be appreciated for its revealing inner life.
