Welcome to the Next Chapter in my life. Until recently I was involved in my private practice as a Mental Health Social Worker and Psychotherapist. A position I considered an honour and a privilege. The courage and resilience of my patients never ceased to be inspirational. So for that experience I am eternally grateful.
During this period I calmed and renewed my spirit through my art work it was my safe place. Essentially all was well in my world. However as is often the case the universe threw me a challenge.
A diagnosis of cancer slowed me down and hurled me into a place of pain and uncertainty. With the help of my treating team, friends and family I began the journey to my new normal.. I turned to my art to sooth and replenish my spirit, to make sense of my experience and help with my adjustment to a very changed reality. After much reflection and attending to the wisdom of the universe I have come to a decision to focus full time. on my art and share my experience, in the hope that, I am able to connect in some small way with others who travel their own journey
My art is inspired by colour, texture, movement and diversity of nature and of human emotion..
It is a visual expression of my emotional experience as therapist, cancer patient and survivorship and desire for connection with you the viewer.
