In all the different universities where I have studied, I was taught to paint what I see. And to paint just like it is. Looking for perfection in each one of my strokes. I did that for many years until I realized that in this life us humans are not perfect, and the beauty of this is that we are all perfect just as we are…imperfect. 

I have been an artist all my life, since a little girl. I have gone through many different stages of painting. But I love where I am now. When I paint, I just follow my heart to reach out to the world, with simplicity, with marks and layers, textures, collages, pencils, crayons, oils, acrylics, color but especially freedom and joy.

I am a lifelong artist and have explored art in its many forms of expression. But glass has always captivated me. It is an alluring and challenging medium to work in. It invites me to explore endless creative possibilities, and I have devoted over 20 years to mastering this medium. I am constantly mesmerized by how this fascinating material can morph into different shapes, encase elements within, and reveal fine details or abstract patterns. Glass is a medium that can mimic water’s sparkle and flow or granite’s solidity and stillness. It is a versatile medium that demands respect. So with my heart open and unrelenting curiosity, my goal is to create works of art that blend creativity, flow, and function, transforming ordinary glass into extraordinary treasures.
