The world around me is like music to my eyes, and when music inspires my soul, I dance!
Artist Statement

I am an artist from Glastonbury, CT. With my art, I strive to share my passion for color, dance and movement with the world. My paintings and drawings are colorful and bold. My abstractions use details from nature to explore the internal energy that motivates the dance and yoga experience. I draw my inspiration from the small details of beauty that embellish the world, I use these inspirations to choreograph colors and figures to dance on canvas. As you examine my work try to bring yourself beyond finding the legs, arms, and heads of the figures. Instead, contemplate the influence of the energy involved in shaping the figures. Where does the figures end and the energy begin? What connections and energies are choreographing the movements you see before you? Allow yourself to see the music. If you dance you know that dance is not just a movement that your body makes, it is an energy that is a reaction to music, it is an energy that radiates from your heart and soul. Colors dance. Music moves. If you do yoga, you know the intense energy and strength it takes to be motionless and you know the feeling of energy radiating through your body. Bodies are energized. Strength is exposed.
My art is not just for dancers and yogis. It is for anyone that has a song in their soul. It is for anyone that has a spirit that moves. Even if you don't call yourself a dancer, I hope that my art can bring you to feel that nature dances through you as well as around you. I invite you to choose bold colors for your home that will match the colors in your soul and make your spirit dance. As you experience my art, open yourself and allow yourself to dance. Dance! Breathe! Move!

My Mission
To create art that moves your soul.
The world around me is like music to my eyes, and when music inspires my soul, I dance! Dance is about expression and soul; it is about moving as a reaction to how your senses respond to the music and your emotions. I create because the world around me is beautiful, every detail offers a musical energy, that demands my reply.
A color’s energy physically and emotionally can inspire movement. My mission is to create with colorful energy to inspire the world to dance. Our lives require mindfulness and pause. We must take in the visual song that is being sung; we must listen carefully allowing the beauty to emotionally move us. Carefully curated surroundings will influence your energy and your mood.
When you are at your physical and emotional best, you have what you need to be your best. Each of us has a powerful identity, a purpose to offer, a responsibility to serve. Through my art, I wish to empower people by creating art that will fuel positive energy. To help people of all walks of life choose art confidently so that their surroundings will fuel their personal energy and positively influence their emotions.
