I convey struggle, hope and enlightenment. I focus on invisible conditions and the quantum world. I see you. I recognize. We're connected

My favorite style is contemporary surrealism. I paint in either acrylics or water soluble oil. I really love the challenge of making things you won't see in your daily life look completely plausible and believable. I'm helping people expand their belief of what exists and what's possible. No psychedelics required.
Where do you find inspiration?Artistically I've found inspiration in the work of MC Escher and a kinship with Frida Kalho. The subject matter comes from my life; the obstacles put in my path and the solutions I use to get around them. Transcendentalism, quantum theory, animism and creative problem solving
What would you do with $25,000?"I would invest most of the money directly into my practice; art supplies, shipping, exhibition and grant fees, marketing, and keeping my website and online store running. As a disabled artist reliant on disability income, I would also need to live partially off of it, but every dollar possible goes toward making the next piece and getting it seen."
