About the Artist

I’ve been painting since I could first hold a brush—before I even knew what creativity truly meant. But like many artists, my path hasn’t been a straight one. While studying at university, a professor once told me I wasn’t creative enough. That voice echoed for years, and I let it quiet my passion.

I found my way back to painting in my twenties, then life took over again. Now, in my 40s, I’ve returned to the canvas with more clarity, confidence, and joy than ever before.

Today, I paint to reconnect—with myself, with the beauty of the world around me, and with others who find meaning in colour and form. I live in the Caribbean with my wonderful husband and our three amazing children, and I’m also deeply involved in our family’s boutique hotel business. Whether I’m painting bold tropical leaves or soft island skies, my work is a love letter to nature, resilience, and rediscovery.
