Artwork description

I am drawn to surrealism as it depicts a world where time is meaningless and gravity does not rule. In my surreal landscapes, objects are possessed by the spirits of positive and negative emotions or are carried by my little hummingbird messengers to add further depth to the story. Hopefully my work will connect emotionally with viewers, encouraging them to unmask these objects to discover their spiritual core and find personal meaning within.

This surreal landscape creates a visual home for my salt and pepper shakers inherited from my favorite aunt’s estate. I played with these little elephants as a child and use them in my work as memory symbols (“an elephant never forgets”). The little hummingbirds and snails remind the viewer that life is in a constant state of transition, with a subtle nod toward the reality of death (the empty snail shell) and the “magical thinking” of an afterlife (levitating iris and leaves).
