This is the work of a contemporary painter whose years of study and practice are reflected in flowing paintings with exceptionally clear glowing colours.
A great passion for life and her strong belief in the interconnectedness of all things and their relationship to the energy of the earth vibrates through Valarie's work. Her extensive study, travel and life experience are the basis of her work.

Artist's statement "Colour is the vital key in my work. Through colour I endeavour to capture the life force of my environs with spontaneity and energy. I believe in the interconnectedness of all things. I hope the viewer will sense and share the depth of love for the subject that I put into each creation."
