As I begin to paint it becomes a form of prayer for me. I


paint from my heart and what I Love. I go deep within my
spirit where endless forms, colors, and images flow freely.
Rich, vivid colors are blended together, organic textures
become alive with passion as the brushes flow back and
forth on to the canvas.
My greatest inspiration comes from nature. I am intrigued by
the variety of patterns, textures and sensual forms which
surrounds me. I simulate and incorporate these textures into
my Figures and mixed media florals.
As our lives become more unbalanced, It is my desire to
instill a sense of peace and harmony and inspire healing
through my use of colors and subject matter.
Currently my art has become more inspirational as my
spiritual path evolves, Goddess imagery in meditative poses
and surroundings, colors and elements from the chakra
wheel are influenced from Hindu and Buddhist teachings.
Living in the country surrounded by nature has enabled me
to nurture and cultivate my passion for art while connecting
with my inner source.
Being able to share my creation is my legacy and gift to the
world.

Art is representing the beautiful. There must

"Colour is fun, colour is just plain


gorgeous, a gourmet meal for the eye, the
window of the soul."

Rachel Wolf.
To be creative means to be in love with life. You
can be creative only if you love life enough that you
want to enhance its beauty, you want to bring a
little more music to it, a little more poetry to it, a
little more dance to it.

--- Osho
