In my work you will see a dance of texture and color that will bring comfort to your soul. These are my trusty tools and my favorite companions in the studio.

Soon after my birth, my family fled and we spent 7 years in a refugee camp. I "flew" amongst dragonflies on the far edge of the camp, and drew stories in the sand over and over. 

In this isolated world, I didn't know what art was, but I innately felt the joy and whimsy in my soul.

I finally understood what pulled at my heart.
