ART IS A PATHWAY TO FREEDOM + EXPRESSION
Part of my mission is to guide people back to their authentic self so they can make their own decisions and create their own belief systems on what they believe to be true. So they can feel FREEDOM.
WHAT LEAD ME TO MY ABSTRACT ART SERIES "HEART ON FIRE"
It all started with play. All my favourite art starts with play. Sketchbook and paints laying on the floor, I started playing with shapes, marks, lines.
