Have a Few Questions? Great!

Q: Are you a good artist?

A: No. Although I have been painting for quite a few years, I wouldn’t consider myself a "good" artist. I have also been told that I am overly critical of my work. It is important to note that I am a self-taught artist and only paint when I feel compelled to.

Q: What inspires you to paint?

A: A combination of desire and intuition. I will generally start a new project when I feel emotionally and mentally stimulated.

Q: Aren’t you that girl who works in politics? Is your artwork political in nature?

A: Yes, my professional background is in politics. My paintings are generally not political in nature; however, my written work is. You can find the descriptions for each of my paintings under the “My Art” section of this website.

Q: What artist inspires you the most?

A: It is difficult for me to pick just one artist. Frida Kahlo’s work is probably my greatest inspiration. Some of my other personal favorite artists include Salvador Dali, Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, Marcel Duchamp, Francis Bacon and John Register just to name a few.

Q: What other forms of art do you experiment with?

A: I have a background in music and dance. Presently, besides painting, I sketch. I also plan to post my fictional stories on this webpage once that is complete. Other than what has been mentioned, I have not experimented with other forms of art (namely, sculpture, architecture, cinema and performance.)

Q: Are you accepting commissions?

Absolutely! However, my commission window is narrow! Please contact me immediately if you would like a commission. The information for that can be found in the “Contact Information” tab.
