Symbolic Portraiture
Portraiture has been about likeness for centuries. I believe it is about a subject's inner life, which means I can paint portraits of hope, resilience, and transformation using not just faces, but objects, shapes, symbolic language.

About
A symbolic portrait artist working at the intersection of inner life and digital craft. Her practice redefines portraiture, moving beyond likeness to explore what lives beneath the surface: rebirth, memory, resilience, transformation.
