Artist Statement
I am an internationally trained illustrator, an entrepreneur muralist and creative with a wide range of experience in craft and varied process techniques. My artistic practice comes from life experience so far- a combination of all that I have seen and felt is retold in the medium of the moment. My images are made with heart and soul with the viewer or my clients’ communities in mind.
My practice is heavy in painting and drawing, although sculpture and printmaking are also favorite areas of concentration. An Illustration degree gives me the edge in telling stories through pictures and communication with purpose. Personal art collections, commissions and murals are only half of my story as a full time artist.
I am a teaching artist who stands with others in the creative process and encourage from a place of empathy and enthusiasm as I see them grow in their own strengths. I am equally invested in the edifying of those who create alongside me in my field. Growing as an artist whilst watering the dreams of others, I believe, is the most rewarding part of this creative journey so far.
As an artist, a lifelong student of experience and teaching artist, I create confidently knowing what I have already learned is wonderful, but what I haven’t learned yet is where the wonder is.
