I love to create art because I love to get my viewers thinking about what I want to express. Love when viewers read my art like a book!

I love to make figurative art work that gets people thinking about issues women have to go through in terms of identity and portrayal. Covering up women’s faces in my pieces serve as a commentary on the many female artists forgotten to time and their art the only thing to remember them by.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in the people I see everyday in my life, my experiences, as well as female artists that I may not be familiar with but continue to inspire me.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use that money to get my Masters in Fine Art after I graduate with my Bachelors in Fine Art as well as travel to Argentina to see my family.
