MY STORY
Who I Am
I was born and raised in the vibrant embrace of Trinidad, where life itself feels like a work of art, painted in bold sunsets, rhythmic waves, and the lush greens of the rainforest. The island’s energy shaped me long before I picked up a brush. As a child, I found myself drawn to the quiet details of nature and the way light danced on the ocean’s surface, how the wind carved patterns in the sand, the deep, unspoken wisdom in a tree’s roots. These moments weren’t just observations; they were conversations, invitations into something bigger.
Art became my way of answering back. Long before I had words for it, I knew that what I felt couldn’t be contained in neat, realistic lines, it needed movement, layers, and texture. It needed color that could pulse and breathe. My work is deeply rooted in that feeling. Every stroke, every composition is an expression of the raw, unfiltered emotions that nature evokes in me. I don’t just create what I see, I create what I feel.
For me, art is a bridge between the seen and the unseen, between memory and experience, between the artist and the viewer. My hope is that when you stand before one of my pieces, you don’t just see an image, you feel something stir within you. A sense of wonder, of connection, of familiarity, even if you can’t quite place it. That’s the magic of abstraction, it allows space for each person to bring their own emotions, their own stories, their own meaning.
At its core, my art is an offering. An invitation to pause, to feel, to reconnect with nature, with yourself, with the invisible threads that tie us all together. Because art, like life, isn’t just about what we see, it’s about what we feel.
My Creative Style
For me, creating art isn’t about sticking to one medium; it’s a wide, open journey where I mix everything from painting and sculpture to resin and natural materials, such as semi-precious stones, preserved foliage, and minerals. I love playing with that contrast. Soft vs. structured, raw vs. polished, flowing vs. still. It keeps things interesting.
Nature is a huge inspiration for me. I really try to tap into its textures and energy, it’s like I’m channeling that vibe into each piece. I want my art to feel alive, not just something to look at, but something that stirs emotion and adds depth to a space. Whether it’s through bold colors, layered textures, or abstract shapes, I aim to create pieces that breathe life into a room and evoke a sense of emotion in people.
