artist statement...

Born from the depths of distraction therapy, my artistic journey started as a sanctuary from chaos and a way to express my deepest feelings, my art seeks to transcend the mundane and encapsulate emotion.
Using instinct and contrast, let the waves of colour allow you to be moved by abstract artist expression.
having transitioned from a background in professional hairdressing, I discovered an unconventional artistic avenue—eschewing brushes, i wield hairdressing tools as my instruments, utilising their varied textures and forms to craft my creations on canvas. through this unorthodox method, I orchestrate a fusion of colours, blending and shaping senses in a manner that opposes traditional artistic norms.

My artwork radiates a symphony of colours and energy that speak volumes without words.
By infusing my raw emotions and employing unconventional tools, I aim to evoke profound thoughts and feelings in those who experience my work. Step into my world, where the canvas becomes a playground of unfiltered artistic expression.
