Artist biography:
For over thirteen years, I have been painting fierce, spiritual, and symbolic portraits of tribal women with acrylic paints, oil pastels and clay. My work is a bold fusion of rebellion and reverence, melding vibrant color, abstract portraiture, and ancient-inspired motifs. Each piece channels the divine feminine, capturing the strength, mystery, and resilience of women across time.

From my garage studio, I transform raw canvases into living oracle, faces adorned with sacred patterns, eyes that hold untold stories, and symbols that reach back to ancestral wisdom. My ongoing Burn the Bra Series, pushes against conformity while honoring the feminine spirit, blending modern expression with echoes of tribal tradition.

My paintings are not simply images; they are guardians, storytellers, and mirrors, reminding viewers of their own power, freedom, and connection to something greater.
