About me

I have always been drawn to mandalas.
​
​There is something in their symmetry that feels deeply calming, something that settles the mind and brings me back to myself.
​Over the years, I’ve explored them through many forms. Pen and ink. Found objects in nature. Ephemeral arrangements that exist only for a moment.
No matter what I create in between, I always return to the mandala. ​It is something that continues to call me back.

Creative expression has become something much deeper than simply making art. It is where I go to step out of pain and into something calmer — a place where I can exist in colour, beauty, and symmetry away from the more difficult parts of life. It grounds me, calms my nervous system, and gives me a sense of purpose, a feeling that I am creating something meaningful despite the challenges I’ve faced over many years.
​
Creating mandalas is a meditative process for me, where the repetition, structure, and slow building of layers bring me back into the present moment.

I believe art can heal.

I believe art can shift the energy of a space, and hold something beyond what we can easily see or explain.
​I believe beauty has power, and that it is deeply needed. That art can reconnect us to ourselves, and to something greater.

Each mandala I create is layered with intention.
Through structure, repetition, and presence, the work becomes both visual and felt, something that carries a quiet energy within it.
I incorporate crystals, numerological structure, and energetic intention as part of this process, as a natural extension of how the work is created.

When someone lives with one of my pieces, I hope they feel a sense of calm, connection and quiet awe.

Nature is a constant source of inspiration for me, and where I feel most like myself.

I spend a lot of time in the bush, often moving slowly and stopping often, as a short walk can easily turn into hours while I notice the smallest details, mushrooms emerging from the forest floor, new seedlings, and the textures and patterns that exist everywhere you look.

My healing journey has shaped everything I create.
​
It has taught me to slow down, to listen, and to find meaning within the process, even in moments that feel difficult.
​This work is not separate from that journey. It is more powerful because of it.

I am based in Wairoa, New Zealand, where much of my life and work is shaped by the natural environment around me.
​My background in design and photography continues to influence how I approach composition, balance, and detail, but at its core, my work is something much more intuitive.

This work is shaped by my own experiences and continues to evolve alongside me.
​It is a way of creating something meaningful from that journey, and bringing a sense of calm and connection into the spaces it lives in.
