​I have always felt like an outsider, except when I am being creative and brave. In recent years, I have been haunted by the effects of severe trauma and great internal suffering. After not having the capacity to get out of bed or do anything for years, I have fought hard to carve out a reconnection to my creative soul. This connection still feels tentative, so I continue to use art as a healing practice every day. Connecting with my creativity is a way of healing myself and other people.
​
I work in mixed media—acrylics, inks, oxides, pencils, pens, and markers. My style is bold, graphic, illustrative, notanized (black and white), and rich in symbols, patterns, and icons. Colour and textures represent my pain and healing.
​
My work is a tapestry woven from a diverse range of ideas, images, cultures, and people. Each thread contributes to the rich and vibrant narrative of my art.
​
I hope you are inspired by my soulwork, that it speaks to your heart and that you connect with the inspiration to my healing process.
