ARTIST STATEMENT

I am a visual emotions abstract artist. Whenever I create, I go on a journey and let the Art take control. I put my heart and soul into every piece that I create. I am open to all mediums of art. But my work consists of paintings and sketching. I would like to get into sculpting too. Art to me is life, it’s everything to me and I am proud to express how I feel in my work. Whenever I create, I am one with everything.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

I am a self-taught artist, raised in both the North and the South, I have been ready to create everything since I was born. I have been a creative since I was born. At a young age, I was intrigued by art especially my mother’s medical books from nursing school. I remember studying the pages and drawing on them.  I remember study the pages and drawing on them. The bones and muscles from the illustrations were interesting to me. In school, I would sketch till my fingers would hurt. Art is my life. I am so proud of this stage in my life. I am pursuing my art career full throttle and ready to create. I have always been a sensitive person and high sense of clairvoyance. Now that I am aware of what this is, I am so honored to be so in tuned with the universe. I appreciate my sensitive side.
