About
I am doing what I love!
My artwork is a personal and instinctive journey, often evoking a story. I am a child of the Caribbean and was extremely fortunate to grow up on the island of Trinidad and visit several Caribbean islands throughout my younger years. These rich experiences in tropical environments are very much a part of who I am today as an artist.
Every day I am grateful and appreciative for the gift of being an artist, of having a creative spirit.
I am drawn to shapes ,color and textures and I interpret these elements in my work in an intuitive and abstract way.
I enjoy experimenting and coming up with new experiences as I paint. This brings me great joy and my wish is to impart this positive energy and feeling to you, the viewer.
My love of nature and the natural beauty that surrounds us will always be a part of my abstract paintings.
I have been working as a professional artist for over 20 years. My formal education was completed in Bristol, England where I graduated with a Bachelors of Education with a specialization in Fine Art. I retired after 30 years from my position as an art educator at a local elementary school. I have done solo shows in Washington, DC and the US Virgin Islands. My intuitive art is vibrant, richly textured and full of bold exotic colors, can be found in collections in several countries in Europe, the Caribbean and the United States
