C R O M E O L A

I love trees, I love flowers, I love the innocence , strength and comfort in both nature and the natural joy inside a child.

Inspiration for my work is centered from a place of channeling the gift of dreaming, allowing myself to be free from constraint ….dancing, singing, being silly, LIVING life to the fullest for every second I am gifted, while I take residence in this human body.

The conceptual framework defining my body of work comes from two supporting frames, a subjective frame built on my personal perspective, beliefs, opinions and records of emotional outpourings and an intention to communicate shaped by the freedom of my imagination.

I wish to add bold color with strong emotion and balance, elements I require for peace.
I also include a predominant structural framework using symbolic objects, lines, pencil marks, color and form to operate in a meditative journey within the conventions of a visual language by representing ideas to communicate meaning.

I use mixed media in my work, acrylic, paper, oil pastel, fabric and stitching/embroidery
My mixed media work began with a strong textile focus. Mostly structural using contemporary color and line, minimal form to produce tangible practical pieces. I have incorporated fabric, paint and stitch in subsequent years developing a mixed media almost collage approach to visual art.
