Artist Statement:
I love painting people in
general but I especially love
painting women. I try to
capture the soft glow of light
from the skin and the way
clothing flows around the
lines and curves of the female
form. My goal is to make the
woman look like someone not
from this world - a serene and
mysterious person who lives
apart from the mundane
activities and anxieties we
face today.
I try to create art that makes
the viewer stare and stare -
the same way that I stare at
the painting while I'm working
on it and when it's done. I
strive to captivate the user
with the beautiful subject,
the striking contrasts and the
vibrant use of colour....

| Your Personal Biography |
I'm a self taught Canadian artist. I was born in Ghana, a small country in West Africa in 1982. Since I was six years old I've lived in Canada spending several years in Edmonton and the little town of Drumheller. Currently, I live in Edmonton, Alberta with my husband Terry who I married in May of 2003. In 2004, I received a Bachelor's Degree in Computer Software Engineering from the University of Alberta. My true passion, though, has always been drawing and painting. |
