Short Bio
I am a self taught Painter/artprenuer, with a professional background in fitness. I own a fitness training studio in South Orange with an equally full time painting hobby, turned business venture.
Statement
I am a self taught acrylic painter who picked up a paintbrush and discovered an instant passion and talent for color expression during the pandemic. The joy of releasing untapped creativity and emotion resulted in a prolific beginning of a personal journey of expression art and healing. In my abstract paintings, I
like to evoke feelings of
freedom, liveliness and
transformation. Through bold
color contrast and dynamic
composition, I try to create
movement and instability on
my canvas flirting against classic form and stability. I thrive on
spontaneity and experimental techniques, in the spirit of adaptability , flexibility and artistic growth.
