Soulful music transformed into luscious colors and unfettered marks.

Drawing inspiration from the profound words of Heinrich Heine who proclaimed, "When words leave off, music begins."

I allow my art to flourish precisely where music emerges.

My artistic mission is to capture the very essence of music by exploring its rhythmic qualities, tempos, and tonalities, unveiling the translucent evolution of sound in motion.

“It is an explosion of happiness, filled with possibilities. This paintings reflects how I am beginning to feel as I own being unmarried. Basically I’ve been waiting for the right painting to be born. And it was.”

-Debi M.

Filled with Light

Filled with light is a pink and yellow large abstract painting that is an explosion of happiness.

“Creatives

take blank a canvas, a lump of clay, pieces of yarn or whatever else we can get our hands on and we bring forth something OUT OF NOTHING!


Then, if we want to, we offer our creations to others in exchange for money.

That's freaking cool if you ask me.”

Get To Know Me

  • I live in Manchester, New Hampshire with my husband and son.

    With a unique gift of synesthesia, I possess the extraordinary ability to forge connections between sound and color, resulting in a vibrant interplay of hues and dynamic entities.

    These interplays are constantly shifting, and intertwining as the melodies unfold.

  • To embark on this artistic journey, I carefully select music that resonates with me, attuning myself to the energy it emanates and observing how my body responds.

    As colors, shapes, and patterns organically emerge, I expertly craft an interplay of soft and bold elements until the painting finds its harmonious balance. My objective is to distill the essence of the music, capturing the spirit of voices and instruments in a refined manner rather than striving for a mere replication.

  • My artistic language is an exquisite fusion of spontaneous, feminine marks, blending asemic and legible handwriting.

    Intriguingly, I incorporate lyrics and names, subtly interwoven into the artwork, adding layers of depth and intrigue. The fluid curves encapsulate a sense of containment, inscribed within the wet paint to reveal underlying layers of color.

    As I playfully apply paint, the expressive strokes of the brush leave a trace, leaving the edges delightfully unpretentious and organic.

  • I employ a diverse range of tools, from traditional pencils and charcoal to innovative implements like forks, trowels, and paintbrush handles.

    Embracing the musical concept of famata - prolonged rest beyond its given time value - I artfully create breathing space within a painting by selectively editing its elements.

I am so excited to give this painting to my wife for Christmas.
