Contempt Painting

Inspired by my former career as a Fashion Designer and my continuing love of fabric, color & texture, I strive to incorporate these elements into my artwork. This process reveals to me the mystery of my deepest memories, feelings and intimate visions, while drawing the viewer to experience my work through design, color, pattern and texture. The tactile nature of my work, juxtaposed against the allegorical subject, unlocks strong emotion from within. With each new piece, I reveal and learn more about myself. One could say I "speak" through my art. My goal is that through autobiographically sharing my story, my audience recognizes the common thread that weaves each of us together. The human experience is indeed universal. I believe we all have a story to tell.
