I am the daughter of an artist. For the last four decades, I have been painting serious pieces. And I’ve been a full-time professional artist for six years now. My work is contemporary, and eclectic, and generally takes the style of abstract expressionism. I will reflect a different artistic viewpoint in a highly abstract manner and an expressive and modernist style. I am devoted to working on large canvas works, drawing in the observer rather than being viewed from the outside. I like to think of my abstract works as reflective of an observer’s ideas and emotions. I believe that art’s greatest gift is not what we see in art but rather ourselves.
