In her words:
"Exploration of the human spirit is my passion. To me, art is a reflection of the people that inspire me, coupled with my own personal feelings and experiences. Intimacy with the subject is the ultimate goal of my paintings. While painting, I imagine having a window or door that someone may crack open to reveal his or her own fears, joys, insecurities, strengths, and shame. Painting lets me be near someone and in my own way, try to understand his or her truth.
Oftentimes, my connections with the human spirit lead me to explore the grief and inspiration of those battling something bigger than themselves. Having lost my mother and other loved ones to cancer, I feel strongly about letting my paintings play a role in the research that will hopefully one day offer a cure. In honor of those who have died, suffered, or survived cancer, 5% of my painting sales will be donated to the American Cancer Society."
