BIOGRAPHY
I am a Dallas based artist.
I use oil and acrylic to paint on canvas but my work isn’t constrained by it, I use clay, metal, and wood to create sculptures that bring my ideas to life. My creativity is not just bound to materials, but I also use various tools – palette knives, aluminium foils, earbuds, nuts and bolts and much more to concretize and give shape to my ideas. I believe that the artist is just the medium.
Although I started as a precocious child artist, under the tutelage of independent artists I kept doing art in school as well as college. My artistic journey was interrupted to accommodate life and family responsibilities. After my sons were old enough to manage their responsibilities, I went back to my calling for doing ART. I pursued to study art in colleges in Dallas.
I am also a member of several art associations and have exhibited my work at many Dallas based informal, intimate art venues.

STATEMENT
My work is very intuitive and has very little planning.I view things that any other observer may miss. In the objects I see a balance in the patterns , streaks, swirls , blotches and colours which I put it on the canvas.The outcome of very artwork is always therapeutic & visceral. The aim of my artwork is to give the viewer a direct visual freedom to form their own personal connection with the image whether it reminds them of somewhere they have seen or invoke an emotion or a memory.
