Rediscovering my creativity after such a long time has been incredibly fulfilling, having had family priorities that needed my full commitment for the past 16 years. Life it is forever evolving and changing and finding time to paint is not always priority but making time has given me peace and stillness when I have needed it. I'm still very much in the early stages of exploring different styles and techniques to see what resonates with me.
Abstract painting allows for freedom and spontaneity, while realism can offer a structured approach to capturing the world around you and I like to jump between the two.
