My art reflects an ongoing journey of self-discovery, where moments of presence intertwine with the demands of daily life. Through painting, clay work, and other mediums, I explore the evolving nature of identity and the complexities of personal expression.
After years devoted to parenthood, I’m returning to art with both excitement and uncertainty. Balancing my art practice and the responsibilities of being a parent is challenging, but in the process I’m rediscovering myself.
