Artist statement

Being raised in somewhat strict home I was taught what the rolls of a man, woman and child were. The man of the house was a provider and the woman and children were in submision to the father! When I left that controlling way of life I soon started looking at others with a new appreciation for the choices one has the courage to make and the diversity of humanity that I could see without judgement. Having very little school and college not an option! I was feeling trapped.

My creativity was suppressed. Not knowing for years I was dyslectic I developed other skills and always wanted to paint portraits. Humans are to me the ultimate work of art from the universe! Now I have learned to surrender to my intuition and paint with intention.
