I hope that my paintings make people feel more loved, appreciated, connected and alive. 

My paintings are about transformation, the incessant chain of fertility in the cycle of life, growth, death and rebirth. I am inspired by folk art, embroidery, textiles and goddess archeology and mythology especially Queen Mother of the West who tends to the Garden of the Peaches of Immortality along with her Elixir-pounding Rabbits and Auspicious Spirits. I use symbols, imagery and colors that celebrate diversity, abundance, joy and love.​
