Statement
Whether drawing or painting, I am searching for that element of magic that is inherent in figures, objects, and nature. Using Pencil and Paint in a realist style, I create images infused with a twist of mystical narrative. While I celebrate the exterior form of beautiful women in my figurative art, what truly motivates me is delving below the surface to her interior world. I am inspired by women's dreams, mysteries, dramas, and mythical personas and I want to share them through my art using color, metaphor, and symbolic content. My art is created to connect the viewer to these private stories, which are truly a part of the universal feminine experience.
