ABOUT THE ARTIST
Emulating the contemporary woman in all her beauty, power and diversity is what inspires me.
My signature portraits capture the essence of empowered femininity, celebrating the strength and grace inherent in every woman. Ethereal flower crowns cascade across the canvas, obscuring her eyes and evoking a sense of mystery and awe – prompting curiosity about this radiant woman.Unweighted by materialistic elements, her poise exudes a natural force. She seamlessly communicates both confidence and resilience, while emanating grace and sensuality – showing us all women can embody these qualities harmoniously, without concession.
Throughout my life, I’ve always been drawn to self-assured women. Women who aren’t afraid of their femininity. Sometimes they’re tough and daring, quiet and determined or curious and playful–strengths I admire and attributes I strive to gain. To capture these qualities, each painting is imbued with layers of meaning. The deliberate selection of vibrant colors, imperfect petals, and unique arrangements serves to convey her story, inviting interpretation from the viewer.
It’s important to me that my portraits are both personal and universally inclusive. Celebrating the diversity of women from all cultures and backgrounds and uplifting them by reminding them of their innate beauty, strength, and resilience.
She is the woman within. A universal symbol of fierce feminine empowerment; unapologetic, unique, radiant and self-assured.
