I create art to heal & to help heal the world. I have a studio that offers that outlet for my community. I just love the energy cultivated.

I enjoy mixed media, finding new techniques to create intentional pieces, allows me the freedom to be completely. To BE ME completely. I am passionate about painting from which everything else grows. The type of art I love to create are the ones that allow me to utilize resources I already have on hand to completely fabricate something new. It’s like drinking water in a desert, when I create something from scratch, that I am proud of, it hydrates my soul. I just want to create something enjoyed
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration everywhere, in everyone & everything. Sometimes it’s something someone says and other times it’s nature, unforgettable moments. I do however dream of painting and sometimes it’s a brilliant unlocking of something unorthodox but truly beautiful. I also find inspiration in demand, what needs to be said & seen. Although, that would always be my perspective, which at its core is unity & peace.
What would you do with $25,000?I would immediately invest in my communities resources for artist of any expression, a larger hub if you will.
