A Little Bit About The Artist
A Statement From The Artist
my body of work involves oil paint on large scale canvases. I work with themes of unapologetic femininity while expressing my own loud journey with how my voice can be heard in a world built for men.
Tell us about a dream you've had.​
The other night I dreamt that I was in my first year halls of residence with Nicky from Orange is the New Black - except it was cowboy themed. I had to scrub all the paint off the walls with a vegetable peeler before the landlord (the sheriff) came to evict me the next morning. Dream or nightmare … it was definitely one to remember!

​​​​What is your biggest influence on your practice?
My journey with my practice revolves around women taking up space - whether that is physically or emotionally. I love the idea of women being unapologetically loud !!!
