“GOLDENROD”
MIXED MEDIA ON RAW CANVAS
12×12 INCHES
what started as a piece about resilience, growing, and thriving on your own through harsh realities and plenty of ideas of what we could do and where we could go somehow morphed into a hopeless romantic story. maybe we’ll go further with a partner-in-crime [romantic or not].

“LIVE LIKE THAT”
ACRYLIC ON RAW CANVAS
7.5×9.5 INCHES; 12×15 FRAME
about following your heart even when it often feels like it’s a crime to. based on text I wrote “the beating heart is the only sign we’re alive and I think that says a lot about how we ought to live.”

“WE ARE ALIVE… OR ARE WE?”
MIXED MEDIA ON UPCYCLED CANVAS
16×24 INCHES
if we’re alive why don’t we feel like it?
living as if we’re alive is not about having no bad days, making reckless and irrational decisions, and living grandiosely; rather it is about seeing magic in the ordinary. i believe when we live this way, death is not a thing to fear.

UNCOOL
for the weirdos who would rather be different than the same and are never afraid to show up exactly as themselves. to me, being ‘uncool’ is actually how to be cool.

ACRYLIC + OIL PASTEL ON UPCYCLED CANVAS
14×14 INCHES
do that fun thing you’ve always wanted to do. go alone if you must, just as long as you go. this piece represents the freedom that comes with being independent and okay with standing away from a crowd.

“OCEAN VIEW”
ACRYLIC ON UPCYCLED CANVAS
15×19 INCHES
inspired by a solo trip to san diego and the afternoon I spent at ocean beach; I sat perched on a ledge where the sand met newport ave and watched the sunset over the ocean and was reminded of the bliss it is to be in a place where you feel completely at home, the most like yourself, and and totally okay with being just as you are, imperfections and all, no notes.

“SEE THE GOOD DAYS”
ACRYLIC ON UPCYCLED CANVAS
38×26 INCHES
about embracing all emotions; we have to be able to sit in darkness if you want to be open to the greatest levels of joy. darkness isn’t something to be ashamed of or to stay quiet about and doing so [acting like ‘everything is fine’] is often a clear path to destruction.
