I make art because it feels good.
When I'm creating, I am never alone. I feel connected in a way that's sometimes hard to explain.
I sense that I am working with helpers from invisible realms who also like to dance with creativity and play with wet paint. The experience is pure joy.
Over the years, my paintings have become like mirrors that inform me of my personal evolution of consciousness. I want to see myself in that mirror without any filters. Without inhibition or self judgement.
This journey has taught me how to sit well within myself. How to embrace Self Love and to share the pearls I’ve learned along the way in case there is another soul who is on a similar journey.
What am I thinking? We're all on this same journey, whether we know it or not. It's my hope that my artwork inspires you in some way as you follow your path to self-enlightenment.
For me, it’s a soulful journey into exploring life’s essential questions. I think Paul Gaugin said it best in those three essential questions that he posed in his masterpiece of 1897:
My current series is focused on the spiritual and unseen realms of life. It’s an attempt to learn about how a painting may serve as what I call a "vibrational healing transmitter.”
I am also constantly asking myself to imagine how to broaden the world of painting into a larger context. How can I, as the artist, reframe the role of a painting in our time?
This is what has led me to strive to create art that's a vessel to house frequencies of light. Art that spreads emanations of healing light into the world. It's a mission that really gets me going!
At the same time, my mind is often exploring how to broaden or even create a new visual language for our 21st century. A lofty and sometimes daunting goal, I know. But so worth the effort in a world that seems mired in the pain of daily existence.
As a female painter, I would also like to open the chat lines and begin dialogues with you and other lovers of art on three important topics:
