2024

As an artist, I’m captivated by the expressive power of the female form and the quiet emotions found in everyday moments. My work explores women in states of introspection, using line, colour and minimalist brushstrokes to create narratives that feel both deeply personal and universally familiar. Each painting is an invitation to reflect on identity, emotion and the many layers of the human experience.

Working primarily in acrylic, I combine bold, confident brushstrokes with a restrained colour palette to create abstracted figurative works. Every painting begins with a feeling or atmosphere I want to capture, allowing simplicity and gesture to shape the story as it unfolds. Although my work is often rooted in realism, I intentionally embrace abstraction, distilling each subject to its emotional essence and leaving space for viewers to bring their own experiences and interpretations to the work.

I’ll be bringing my expressive, figurative work to Yes! Art in the form of originals, prints, greeting cards, tote bags and journals
