I am a Kenyan-Indian-Australian emerging artist who takes inspiration from my cultural heritage and life experiences. My birth country, Kenya, inspired my love for nature & African wildlife. I am a creative, bubbly, family-oriented person who loves art in all forms. I work with watercolour, acrylic, soft pastel and recently learned pyrography from Rhonda, an 89-year-old wonderful soul.

​​

I enjoy meeting people from all walks of life, and am looking to pursue teaching pyrography to individuals and small groups in the future. Apart from art, I am great with numbers and work as a casual bookkeeper.

 

I suffered a severe venous stroke in 2014 whilst undergoing a brain biopsy, which left me with left hemiplegia. My left arm has been severely affected since, and has no functional movement. I find art to be a fulfilling, creative outlet, using art as a form of therapy, as it makes me relaxed and keeps me happy. ​

​

I have completed a couple of painting commissions & pyrography orders in this short time that I have embarked on my Art Career journey!!​
