Abstract Paintings
My gestural abstract paintings resemble carefully composed songs, where contour lines act like musical notes and interact with blocks of color to create delicate narratives. I intentionally use empty space as a compositional element, allowing the eye to breathe, much like the rests in music. My color choices are instinctual, contrasting vibrant, saturated hues with muted tones to evoke a unique mood for each viewer. The result is a dynamic and harmonious visual concerto, rich with energy and emotion.

Artist Statement:
“Me Too.” As a woman I’ve experienced countless intrusions of sexism, harassment, assault, and manipulations. I know what it is like to shrink myself in attempts to disappear. It’s safer when you are unseen. There’s safety in being quiet. As my first corporate boss said to me “you’re here to listen, learn and shut your mouth.” I learned to take up as little space as possible because taking up space meant vitriol because I was competition. I know better now. I know that to create the life I want, I must stretch my wings wide. I must stand and roar. I must dance and move and make noise. I must not apologize for the gifts I’ve been bestowed…gifts meant to help make the world a better place. I must shout, sing, share and laugh. I must be the most ME I can. This is power. This is the feeling I want to share in my paintings so YOU may remember it and feel it every day. That you’re meant for greatness. You’re meant to have impact. You’re meant to use your voice and claim your space in the life you dream. Are you ready now??? Me too.
My abstract expressionist paintings are infused with a powerful sense of beautiful chaos in a spirited palette of bold, energetic colors inspired by couture fashion. Using acrylic, gouache, pencil and oil pastels, my works feature gestural marks and nature-inspired details meant to inspire a sense of camaraderie where the viewer discovers a joyful mirror to their own inner vitality, uniqueness, and dialogue leaving them to feel seen, heard, celebrated, and inspired.
