I create art for people who feel invisible, overlooked, and misrepresented. I really appreciate Gods handy work in things.

Portraiture of any form. Nothing tells a story quite like a face!
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in motherhood, history, in understanding the mysteries of life, how all things work together and in people’s eyes. I love unconventionally beautiful people and their stories. I also love watching people heal from the hardest and darkest times. The resilience of the human race is astounding. Nature is another gold mine for beautiful finds.
What would you do with $25,000?I would create a solid stream of income by first finishing my psychology degree & then creating an art space so that I can practice art therapy and facilitate lessons from home. I feel that a lot of the societal decline we are witnessing has to do with how underdeveloped we are emotionally. I’d love to help with the healing journey in some way.
