Artist Statement

Life is full of Color!!!
Those red hot moments when passion is all around you, you can taste what
life has to offer. When your heart pounds for the next moment.
This is where I am in life. I am finally coming into my own, really learning about myself. Loving myself has been a new and exciting experience, and because of all of this my art has been evolving.
Born and raised in the Bahamas I have been blessed with all the colors of the world. We are a colorful country and ever more colorful are our people. We have two different sides to our culture. First we are very religious, there is a church on every street corner, and we protest against everything sinful, everything on the surface is pretty and perfect. Secondly we are a culture with skeletons in our closets, our closets are plentiful and very full. And it leaves me in a very peculiar place because I paint nudes. I paint woman for the most part. I think women are incredible creatures. We have such big shoes to fill from being a mother, lover, caregiver, housekeeper, wife, friend and still have to work our 40 plus hours a week. We as women have learnt to do it all and I try to reflect this in my paintings. As a woman i realize that we don't take time to pat ourselves on to back as we nurture the world around us....
