Artist Statement
I am passionate about art, and it is the only way I survived the pandemic. Bombarded with images of death, global shutdown, and uncertainty, I created this vibrant body of work. At a time when when everything seemed so bleak, I infused my art with the reasons why I love New Mexico; abundance of color, iconic images, and nature. My use of acrylic gouache on canvas imbues positivity, joy and, hope while paying homage to the Land of Enchantment.
