Artist Statement
I have a deep interest in nature and human emotions, which is often reflected in my art. My work is a sincere expression of who I am and how I perceive the world around me. I specialize in contemporary realism, with a focus on landscapes, seascapes, and human experiences. Each of my pieces is characterized by intricate details and seamless color transitions. As a resilient survivor of stage 4 cancer, I find great joy in dedicating each day to the art of painting, from morning until night. I am truly grateful for the richness of life, embracing the roles of motherhood, painting, being a wife, and embracing my identity as a woman. These aspects of my life are evident in all my creations.
