My "Brand"
I keep hearing people say “build your brand.” Eh. I’m not a fan. Brand? I’m not a commodity. What is a “brand” when it relates to a person? Is it who they genuinely are or is it the image they portray? My art is my truth. There is nothing more raw and real about me than my desire to CREATE. And it is random. It follows no pattern other than my passion for color and exploration. Others can decide what they think my brand is. Meanwhile, I’ll continue to create and I’ll continue to defy expectations. ⠀⠀⠀⠀

Color is a focus of my work for a variety of reasons, but the main reason is for healing. My father was an angry and violent man. He took out his rage on his family daily and I took it upon myself to protect my mother and brother from him by becoming the focus of his fury. We didn’t have much, but my mother filled our home with colorful art to bring radiance into an otherwise dark place. I followed in her footsteps and escaped into vibrant art of all shapes and forms. Getting into the flow of mindful art creation has been the single most important part of my healing. I hope to share the happiness that colorful art brings me with others, especially children.
