I’m interested in the good, the bed and the ugly that exists in each of us. My recent work focuses on women, their beauty, vulnerability and feelings. It’s what lies beneath that’s what I am interested in. Looking past the obvious and digging deeper into personal and sometimes dark territory.
In recent years I have been exploring The Journey of self discovery, an internal pilgrimage that we are often not fully aware of, or on the contrary – aware but terrified of it. I discovered that during that quest we have to ask ourselves uncomfortable questions and receive often very painful answers.
Without pain however, there’s no illumination.
