Art is something that breathes life into my soul, aiding my recovery, and make sense of the world while connecting with others.

I am primarily an oil painter, working in larger scale paintings that reflect on art history through figurative and still life compositions. I seek to tell narratives through symbolism of everyday objects and historical significance such as Victorian floral language and Renaissance and Gothic Era references. I love to paint realistic imagery that holds the imprint of a paintbrush, allowing colors and shapes transform the canvas.
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration through multiple means: art history and my own personal experiences leading the way. I love the balance of femininity with masculinity as a tool to push forward my own understanding of my identity. One main guiding question in my work is to seek a question my therapist once asked me: "What would your art look like if you were happy?"
What would you do with $25,000?$25,000 would be a substantial propeller into taking the leap into a full-time practice that becomes my career. It would allow me to get a dedicated space outside my current living room corner and hell me achieve my dreams of larger scale work, full series, and walk interested parties through my studio to further enhance my impact within the art community. It would also support supplies and resources that go into making large scale oil paintings.
