Artist Statement & Profile
My artwork comes from the heart. I create my concepts from my inner thoughts and feelings through processes of reflection and sensitivity.
Everyday events, mass media, popular culture and social issues inform my personal expression of what it is to be human in the 21st Century.
I love to experiment with a variety of different textures and media, and by doing so it provides me with an abundance of ideas and inspiration.
