Majority of my art is influenced by my life. Nothing makes a peice more raw then genuine experiences.
Chronic Illness, Mental Health, Neurodivergence, Q***r exploration, single motherhood, and dark humor are at the core of my work. If you relate to any of the art I create, maybe you've been down those roads as well.

You are the artist, and the art, in your life.
You are the color, beauty and the mess.
Your story is worth telling, and the world wants to know you.
Show it in art. Show it in raw authenticity.
Paint yourself onto canvas, you are worthy.

Thank you for everyone that's invested in a small part of my soul. I paint these stories for you ❤️
You are not alone.

I haven't been sleeping well because of a flare of one of my chronic symptoms. The lack of sleep is definitely interrupting my creative flow.

These are my go to items for staying creative on low health days, and when the energy is just not vibing. I'm all about the hacks to making art more accessible for me during bad symptom flares.

Chronic illness has taken away alot of the joys in my life, but it won't take this one!!

Swipe to see some of the art I've made about living with chronic illness!!

I'm coming up on a fresh shave day, and thought I'm due for a little story time on my big bald head.

One of the things I often get stopped for by strangers out in public - is my head. I always hear from random people out and about is " I wish I had the courage to shave my head like that " , and then usually get asked a ton of questions about why I do this.

I always grew up with long hair. Not by choice! I was a competitive dancer, in RAD Ballet and having your hair in a proper Bun was mandatory. I also attended a private school, and the one time I tried to cut my hair short , I was bullied relentlessly for having " Boy Hair ".

As I became an adult, I again tried to cut my hair short and was told by my relationships at the time that I was unattractive with short hair. I had alot of outside influences constantly telling me I needed long hair to be accepted.

Once the COVID pandemic hit, I was a newly single mom, discovering my Q***rness, and living in a brand new world where no one could tell me what to do, and being authentically myself was my top priority.

So I shaved my head. BAM. It was incredibly empowering, and for the first time in my life I felt like my whole self. Hair always bothered me, made me itchy, gave me headaches , and was more work then I cared for. Finally being free of that weight, and the burden of how I was supposed to look, I was so happy.

Ever since then, I have consistently shaved my head every few weeks to keep it extra short, and with my current chronic health conditions, having It shaved just takes one more self care chore off my list. I can get up and go and not exert energy trying to deal with my hair. No more headaches, no more sensory overload.

Ive actually found the best cheerleaders in the community who love to stop me, compliment my boldness, and say they love my shaved bald beautiful head. So if youve ever had the inclination to take a buzzer to your head - this is your sign.
DO IT!! you'll never regret it. Infact, call me - ill help you shave it and cheer you on the entire time 😉

If you've ever had a vision you'd like brought to life, consider me as your artist 🎨

Christmas is my busiest time for art comissions, but I am open year round to help you create personalized art for your friends, family, business, or Christmas cards.

Don't generate stolen A.I slop, but support local disabled artists trying to put food on the table.
Trust me, A.I won't put as much effort & love into your art as a small time artist who hustles.

Here is some examples of art I've made for other people! Even if its not the usual art you see posted on my page, I would love to design something especially for you!

Its storytime!!

Take this as your sign to pick up a brush and make a mess if you've ever been tempted to do so.
Life's too short to worry about being perfect.

I'm a self-taught, grade school art class, raised on art attack & Bob Ross kind of artist.

So what's stopping you!?!?

** I am an artist committed to handmade raw and real art. I am firmly Anti - A.I . This was created by hand using Canva and all art depicted is mine, hand drawn on procreate.
