oil painting with wax print fabric, mixed media collage, vibrant colors, and textures inspired by my time spent living in Ghana. The portrait is of a beautiful woman with a wide smile, adorned with colorful print fabric wrapped around her head as a turban and a large number of necklaces around her neck. Her eyes are closed and she is laughing

Head "Head Space," an acrylic painting with mixed media texture, a side view of a woman gazing into the distance, texture and expressionistic brushstrokes in muted, neutral, earthy colors, and mixed media collage

oil painting with hand stitched detail, makes reference to fresh starts and new beginnings, from the sunrise evident in the closed eyelid to the embroidered flower growing towards the rising sun, woman is smiling and happy, surrounded by colourful abstract brushstrokes and the painting alludes to hope and all the grace we are given
