My paintings are an invitation—an open space to slow down, breathe, imperfection and reconnect. To pause. To get quiet. To recalibrate both the nervous system and the creative soul. Creativity has always been the light guiding my inner landscape, keeping me centred as life constantly shifts and reshapes itself.

It’s been a refuge in moments of uncertainty, a source of deep compassion in times of pain, and a vessel for joy, bliss, and peace. I always strive to create from that higher, more connected space—one of resilience, growth, and presence. But the truth is, that’s not always possible.

So my creative practice becomes my practice. It becomes the medicine.

Back in 1998, I spent time with the Oglala Lakota Sioux Medicine Men in Montana. The sacred sweat lodge ceremonies left an imprint on my soul—one that still shapes my creative and spiritual path today. My work continues to evolve, drawing from Buddhist philosophy, devotional teachings, and the sacredness found in the everyday—the extraordinary within the ordinary.

I’m drawn to textures that feel like earth. Imperfections. Repetitive imagery, layered marks, and dots—symbols of life’s impermanence and beauty. Every painting begins with a mark-making practice, a meditation, a stream of consciousness unfolding in real time.

At its core, my work is about exploring that delicate balance between what we see and what exists just beyond our perception—inviting reflection, curiosity and a quiet sense of cosmic divine wonder.
