The daughter of an artist, I've been drawing, painting and making stuff since I was five. I went to LaGuardia HS of The Arts in NYC where I majored in studio art and no matter how I tried to do something else, I cannot stop being an artist.
I enjoy pencil, pen, watercolor, acrylic, and various mixed media of all types. I prefer to create intimate art that depicts an interior landscape rather than external reality, and so there's a lot of symbolism and expressionism involved in my work. A bit of pop culture, fashion, and irreverence. A love for the pretty, no matter how hard I try to fight it, and a need for meaning.
In many ways, my artwork is almost like magic. It's about bringing into reality that which is unseen.
Some of my favorite artists and influences are Frida Kahlo, Gustav Klimt, Egon Schiele, Prehistoric and Aborigine art, Rothko, Kiki Smith, VIncent VanGogh, Cezanne, Gaugin... perhaps the entire 19 century room at the Metropolitan actually.
