PAINTER.
CREATIVE.
MENTAL HEALTH ADVOCATE.

OH, hey

I was talking about how I wanted to make more art to my friends and well here I am!

I’m a self-taught artist and avid creator of anything and everything sentimental. I was raised by my parents, longing and yearning, and shaped by my friends/chosen family, whimsy and delulu.

Though I was conditioned to be small, I sense deeply and express passionately.

I hope my creations help celebrate parts of ourselves that are forgotten or stored away for safety.

Note to self. I love you, you are great the way you are. Don’t be afraid to show yourself and what you have to offer to the world. Take care of yourself and you’ll be ok. Also water your plants.
