My work is inspired by the natural world.
Its beauty and its cruelty.
Its hostility and its hospitality. Its paradoxes and its contrasts.
The gem series approaches the conflicts between the beauty of gemstones
and the cost at which they are mined - both environmental and human.
We live in a world in a time, where our own pleasure and the need
for luxury and beauty, give precedence over the rights and needs
of others. In a political climate of arrogance, ignorance and greed
at the cost of virtually anyone, but the richest and most powerful,
the role of art has once again gained drastic importance. Artists
must be unwavering and give society a mirror to reflect it's obscure
obsession with possession, power and misguided patriotism.

The pursuit of being an artist has been
the only constant thing in my life for as long as I can remember.
Even when I was a little girl I would sit and doodle for hours. In
fact, I believe my grandmother actually kept some of my childhood
drawings from before I could even speak a complete sentence.
