I was born on the island of Zanzibar. Then lived in Cape Town and Sydney and now in Los Angeles. I meditate daily and have done so for many years. I am a teacher of high school and adult students. My artist husband taught me to paint 25 years ago and we have been painting side by side ever since. My painting process is a means to contemplate my spiritual experiences and the eastern philosophy I study.
