In a nutshell, the natural world may be described as a complex web that connects all beings on the planet. Many people find nature to be beautiful and fascinating for many reasons including scientific findings, spirituality, or simply aesthetics. The artist explores the natural world through a variety of ways including death, the human body, and the unexpected, sometimes with a hint of humour sprinkled into the mix. Though the artist enjoys experimenting with a variety of new and different materials, her body of work mainly consists of good ol’ acrylic paint. The artist has found her strength in using acrylic paint when it comes to creating representational images such as a sunflower or a cat, which requires the colours and rendering to be just right. Many of the artist’s paintings have a whimsical air about them that stems from the artist’s enjoyment of stories and dream-like qualities. With a growing interest in the science and sustainability of flora and fauna, the artist hopes to build upon her existing art with an open mind.
