ABOUT THE
ARTIST
"My art expresses my inner wilderness by way of an outer one"
It is my hope and dream as an artist to bring the intricate beauty of the natural world into a collectors environment to inspire and speak deeply to their heart.
With art being such a universal language, it can allow for your own spark of imagination, interpretation and exploration that can transcend time. It can help the viewer connect to your own inner light, touch your soul and beckon you into a different realm.
My art is a snapshot between elements of realism and dreamy fantasy which I call magical realism.
My paintings aim is to connect heaven on earth through passion and joy. I strive to communicate beauty and serenity giving a feeling of happiness and grace to the viewer through my brushstrokes.
I am so happy you are here, and I hope you enjoy peering into my dreamy magical world of art.!
