I was born and raised in Boston
into a family of artists. Art has always been around me.
I create art because I am compelled to, like breathing, it
is essential to my life. I am continuously intrigued by how
things are put together. I enjoy slowing my mind down to
contemplate the mysteries of life. My artwork helps me to
be more centered and patient, to appreciate the miracles
of nature, my talents and respect my limitations.
My jewelry helps to energize, bestow tranquility and enhances
the inner glow of the adorned. I let the shape and colors
of a gem communicate to me what metal it needs to be combined
with. Sometimes a design is born from metal shapes left over
from cutting out another design. Once in a while a design
comes to me in a dream. Other times they float in while engaged
in a mundane task.
With my paintings, I become the colors, they express how
I feel at that moment. From abstract to colorful nature inspired
themes, they are a mix of reality and fantasy. In my music
creation, I am a channel. Songs and poems come to me while
I'm asleep. They always mirror my values of self-love, happiness
and self-reflection. I mix together funk, jazz, hip-hop,
gospel, East Indian music and more. Like a chef, I select
each ingredient to complement and bring out the best in the
others. Sharing these gifts I've been given is my contribution
to uplifting the world. More of her work can be seen here |
