As an artist who also is a paediatric stroke and neurosurgery survivor, I see the world in a very unique way. The vibrancy & intensity of colours in my paintings are because that’s what I actually see when I look at the world around me. This sensory overload affects my everyday life and of course is very much reflected in my work.
Having just 50% vision also makes painting a fun challenge & is why my paintings are perfectly imperfect if you are interested in matching sides :)
You may wonder why I paint if I’m visually impaired & my neurology heavily influences my work, from the basic fact of having to learn to paint with my non dominant hand to having life-long neuro-exhaustion which severely limits my time in my home studio.
The answer is simple. I LOVE what I do!
