For over 20 years I have been developing my own painterly language through portraiture and atmospheric scapes. I don't seek realism, but rather a catalyst that will begin a dialogue between viewer, painting and artist. My artworks are a cultural dialogue that concerns larger contextual frameworks such as personal and cultural identity, family, community, nationality and a journey with my own physicality and spirituality. I am obsessed with the painting process, but also enjoy running workshops, sharing my knowledge and passion.
