I am an intensely emotional insightfully intelligent being; expressing my soul through colour, texture and paint! Vibrant, overt colour; raw paintily textures, and stark, yet flowing contrasts signify my artistic expression, and the emotional impact of my work; my artistic voice.
I choose figurative or flora subject matter, and themes relevant to the human experience. I love the round lines of the female figure, or inside nature, often extenuating or extorting the lines to emphasis angles to create impact. I like to change the colours to unnatural tones, taking the themes into a fantasy sphere, away from the IQ world and into the EQ realms.
I paint with my fingers, with palette knives, and with brushes in the final details.
Painting; creating, is medicine. Daily medicine. Vital for my mental health and the continuity of my reality, my life force. Like food, making art is a daily addiction that calls me to feel deeply, to express confidently, to speak in a language the eyes can see, the fingers can touch yet voiceless, soundless...there lies my power.
My wish is for others to see my work, relate, and maybe go away confident to express their souls loudly, quietly, but with a sense of self that speaks as uniquely as their own finger print.
I offer raw emotion straight from my heart and soul.
To me, pure emotion is the most beautiful, the most intelligent thing in humanity.
Natures Midwife explores self nurchering, reinvention and the process of internal change. sometime change is a painful process, yet allowing this process is not only inevitable, but the result, the rewards, the inner transformation can be astoundingly beautiful. being alone, living alone inside nature, co-existing with the bush and a natural environment free from human interference is a gentle yet harsh, confronting yet supportive journey to take.
