Art is my sanctuary, my healer, and my truth. It is a means of unfiltered expression, a mirror to my soul, reflecting both the shadows and the light. Through art, I find the courage to be honest and transparent, devoid of judgment or reservation. Each piece I create is a testament to who I am at that moment, a blend of my past struggles, present triumphs, and future aspirations. Art allows me to move forward and look back simultaneously, transforming personal healing into a collective experience.

My journey as an artist is deeply intertwined with my battles against addiction and mental illness. Through the lens of my creative endeavors, I explore themes of failure and redemption, depicted through bold colors and vibrant, erotic textures. I utilize repurposed and deconstructed materials in my paintings, sculptures, and wearable art, metaphorically repurposing my trauma and growth into a visual narrative of healing and transformation. Each stroke, each piece, tells a story of survival and resurgence, turning chaos into beauty and pain into power.

As the co-founder of the Reading Artist’s Collective, author of “That Damn Cookbook,” former host of “That Damn Cooking Show,” and creator of The Indigo Experience, I am committed to nourishing the consciousness of the soul through art. My work is not just a display of passion and personal growth, but a spiritual journey that invites others to see beauty in the everyday chaos. My art is a transformative force, not just for myself but i hope for anyone that engages with it.

I create because I must. It is not a choice but a necessity—a way to breathe, to live, and to heal. Art is nourishment for the soul, and through it, I aim to inspire others to find their own path to healing and self-discovery. My work is an ongoing dialogue with the world, a continuous process of exploring and sharing the depths of human experience.
