I am a self-taught artist from the island paradise of Fiji. My love affair with art began when I was a child and I would spend endless hours drawing in my sketchpad. I dabbled in painting for a short while about 15 years ago while in medical school but the pressures of adulthood and establishing a career soon put a stop to it. Since then, I was only able to paint sporadically because between juggling my job as a budding surgeon in Fiji, and being a single mom, I just did not have the time or energy to devote to my art. I recently moved to Sydney to pursue a Master in Health Science and take a break from my career. Now that I am a full-time student again, I have a lot more time to immerse myself in art and try to develop my craft.
My art is best described as eclectic, and is inspired mostly by nature, in particular, the beautiful beaches and seascapes in my island home. Although I haven't been in Australia for long, I have already seen many gorgeous places, flora, and fauna, to draw inspiration from and I hope to showcase them in my upcoming pieces. I use acrylics primarily, incoporating brush, pour/flow and finger-painting techniques.
