| About the Artist |
Living abroad has influenced my use of colour. My work has also taken influences from my own mixed heritage, my father being African and my mother Italian I feel I have a rich diverse background. My work interprets form, pattern design and colour.
I explore the concept of a fusion of elements transending time and place within my work.
