Inspiration, creative practice

Through various visual art mediums I invite my patrons to gain through my exploration of luminescence of joy, healing, love and to fly above adversity (as expressed in my Skypeople series).

I am a published poet, I tend to explore ‘the darkness of this life’ more through my written works, rarely through the visual. Inspiration springs from the world of dreams, memory, Reiki practice, the facilitating of support groups for the clinically depressed and other present realities.
