About the Artist |
Contact Information |
I am a Contemporary Artist, working in mixed media and I like to explore the concept of Divine Feminine Energy and an inner sense of being, which feminine energy awakens. It’s a journey of self-love and self-acceptance bringing the divine feminine energy to the forefront of our existence to heal ourselves, each other, and Mother Earth.
I have a deep connection to the natural world and the unseen, creating portraits that merge with nature encompassing overlays of leaves, branches, vines, and root systems, that represent veins and arteries to express the connection between humans and nature. Through symbolism and a range of mixed-media approaches and techniques, I have applied a variety of themes which include mythology, esotericism, transformation, and metamorphosis, painting my female figures as human/nature hybrid forms, and surrounding them with highly detailed and ornate symbolic flora and fauna. My working style portrays a fusion of traditional painting techniques with contemporary styles, intertwining realism and abstraction, to depict humanity, metaphor, and narrative. The strength of my work resides in the theme that is currently popular in the world today. I feel the awakening of the Divine Feminine Energy of this world is more crucial now than ever before. I believe, in order to heal not just ourselves, but also the Earth, a balance between the feminine and male energies must be established. My intention is that those who encounter the works will be inspired, not only to engage with the concept of human-nature connectedness, but also to experience their own emotional connection to nature by awakening the Divine Feminine within them. |
