I started drawing my freshman year of high school and shortly thereafter fell in love with painting. As a painter, I am able to channel my ADHD into a creative outlet which also helps me work through my depression and anxiety. Heavily inspired by abstract and pop artists like Basquiat, Warhol and Lichtenstein, I love learning and experimenting with new techniques.

After an atypical and more-than-challenging freshman year at college, I was reminded just how much art is a part of who I am. With my painting, I’m discovering more about myself each day. Through different animals, intentional symbolism, color and composition, I’ve portrayed aspects of my recent journey. A journey that I like to call The Safari.
