About the Artist
Honestly, I suck at talking about myself.
I think it comes from the trauma of growing up neurodivergent, and having a career that involves listening to people to talk about their struggles and helping them figure out what to do about them.
This can make me a really difficult person to get to know.
But then I started painting during the pandemic and I began learning how to put myself on a canvas. My deepest insecurities, silliest personality traits, biggest fears, etc, all laid out in bold colors for the world to see.
My work tends to live at the intersection of the psychological and the absurd. I paint the dark days and the weird joys, the feelings that are too big for words, and sometimes I hide my cats and UFOs in my pieces.
Over the past several years, art has been healing me in ways I didn’t expect, and in this next chapter of my life, I’ve decided to build my third career as a full-time artist.
I’ve only just begun this journey and I’ve sold several paintings, but I’m still figuring it out. However, with your support, I know I can make my dream a reality.
So I hope you’ll buy an original or print, reach out to me about commissions, or contact me just to say hi. Either way, I’d love to connect.
