In my ‘Dear little Ones’, I aim to capture the magic of tiny moments. I draw memories from my own childhood, mixed with stories of and interactions with children today.
My intention is to bring a smile by travelling back for a moment to that time of wonder and endless possibilities called childhood.

‘It's confusing,’
I hear from time to time.
Which works belong to you now?

Well both of them.
The works may be ‘different in style’, but the intention is not.
I like to bring kindness and positivity into the world.
I like to touch people in that layer underneath the surface.
I want to spark a smile with my work, create a peaceful haven at the end of a busy day, restore a connection with yourself.

And I do so in two ways.

Sometimes I feel like drawing and working figuratively. Then my focus is on poses and expressions of mimicry to reflect ‘my memory’. I try to capture the strength or softness of a moment in lines, colour and background.
Sometimes, I want to work based purely on feeling and abstractly, without a defined plan. Without a predetermined result, letting go of control and waiting to see what the outcome will bring.

So to all the ‘confused’ ones, sorry not sorry, they are both part of me.

The locations of my works, exist only in my imagination. They arise from memories of places where I feel good, sculpted deeper by colour and movement.
They take me to a place where my head is allowed to quiet down, where I can catch my breath. Somewhere where peace and softness can be found.
