Artist’s Reflection

Creating Our Light Beneath The Waves was a deeply personal journey. I wanted to capture the tender, illuminating bond between the seahorses amidst the darkness that surrounds them. Each tile was placed with intention, reflecting both the fragility and resilience of their connection.

For me, this piece represents more than just form — it embodies a narrative of light and hope guiding us through uncertain moments. It is a mosaic designed to be felt as much as it is admired, and I hope it resonates with collectors who appreciate both craft and story in equal measure.
