~ lifelong member of the messy art society ~
I am a queer artist who has been creating for as long as I can remember. While my peers were asking for toys, I was asking for art supplies. My love for arts and crafts never faded - it only grew.
In high school, I helped start our first Art Club, which gave myself and other students a space to create, share, and feel seen. That was one of the first times I realized how powerful art can be in building community.
I began selling my art online while I was in college, but it was mainly because my home was overflowing with finished hand embroidery projects. However, as with many other creative folks, my love for art has only continued to grow as I move through my life. What started as a way to make extra space quickly turned into something much bigger.
One way that my creative growth manifests is through the various forms of medium I use to create with. That said, this website serves as a way to showcase the years of dedication I have put into my crafts of choice and offers an opportunity to follow along as I discover every other artistic passion I will encounter.
I appreciate you taking the time to visit my website. I hope that you will enjoy exploring my art and I look forward to connecting with you.
