Beginning with simple curvature line work, I developed a style of using repetitive patterns and shapes into the artwork. Fast forwarding to 2020, when the world was in chaos and we no longer had the luxury of putting things off until tomorrow, I gave up self-doubt and my hesitation to publicly share my artwork. During this time, I incorporated organic designs with the spirit of Mandalas which naturally led to the creation of  Folk Mandalas; intertwining my interpretation of classic Mandala designs with the beauty of imperfection.
