interest in art

I first became interested in art as a means to escape the drudgery of my school days. As I doodled I made shapes and forms that I imagined, creating my own reality. I became absorbed with pushing the real world away with unexplainable images.

A reoccurring theme I use to make a connection between my inner reality and concrete reality is the human figure - the essence of a contemporary feminine form.

This is the beginning of my blog, which I will use to post the progress of my paintings. I will share my thoughts, feelings and ideas of my perspective.
