Description
“My style of drawing is informed by continuous lines, intricate patterns, contrast of colour and sweeping visual narrative of geometric shapes. My paintings usually embody the multi-facets of women as being sensual, beautiful and carefree. I strive to find fulfilment in the ability to translate these aspects on canvas from my imagination. I believe everyone goes through their personal journey in life. Drawing and painting are an essential part of mine and as a true artist these are like footprints left behind.”
