I create art to show the magic in everyday experiences because I believe that the more we slow down and appreciate the mundane aspects of life, the more connected we are to the world around us. The images intertwine imagination with reality to keep alive the wonder I felt in each moment when I was a child and express that it is still accessible everywhere we go. I emphasize this in my paintings, which are filled with bright colours to convey a vision of life where a person is so sensitive that they can see everything in its full vibrancy. I enjoy keeping brushstrokes visible because I feel that being able to see the energy with which I applied the paint connects the viewer to my process. I approach art with curiosity because I always discover new things about myself through my imagination. In the future, I want to share the use of art as a vehicle for self-understanding through a career in art therapy.
