From a young age I have been haunted by my need to find something that i was passionate about. In 2012 during a time of my live that I had voided myself of emotion I started painting one night as if someone had whispered in my ear that I should. Passion came inside me and I made a mess of my canvas, shattering glass, pouring paint, using my hands as the brush.
I continued to paint every chance I got, using broken objects as inspiration. I finally felt I had a reason to take action in my life and over the next year made changes with out hesitation or fear.
Once I was free of the parts of my life holding me I started painting everyday with acrylic, oil pastels and pencil mostly on wood.
Without the influences of any art background or art knowledge all my paintings came from within, refusing to finishing a piece until it made me happy.
