Artist Statement
I have spent years on the border between life and death. Two of my children are designated Miracle Kids for Children’s National Hospital in Washington, D.C. Although unrelated medical issues, both defied every prognosis and are thriving today. The pain of almost losing them changed my perspective on the world. These traumas and their related miracles are in my every brush stroke. Painting has helped me work through some of this darkness and embrace the silver linings of life. I create large-scale abstract paintings that are composed of bright tones, or contrasting colors, complimented by a dense texture. My background in ceramics help inform my practice. Deeply influenced by my environment, in synthesizing images. My roots in three-dimensional ceramics appear in the creation of my mediums. Due to my children’s medical experiences, I walk through life with an altered perspective. I try to approach all things in my life with love, kindness, and appreciation-infuse such values in my art. My artistic intent is to create a feeling of a memory as opposed to a memory of a specific place. I hope such sentiment shifts the way in which people see themselves and the world – beautifully flawed and impossibly kind.
