SHIPPING AND RETURNS

This piece was inspired by a song from Blonde Redhead and the lyrics "Guess we're equally damaged." The illustrated lemon serves as a metaphor for what it is to feel discarded, like a freak, or simply an outsider.

My art serves as an outlet and form of self-love, allowing me to take up space through experimentation and discovery. Navigating mental health and personal transformation are underlying themes central to my work. As a way of processing feelings and emotions, my art practice explores the seemingly childlike expression of intuitive painting and a developing inner dialogue that deepens within me as a piece evolves. Alternating random and deliberate strokes of paint and mark-making, I build layer upon layer until perfect imperfection emerges—sharing a metaphor of self-acceptance and the ability to love ourselves unconditionally. As a self-taught artist, I'm continuously inspired by the simplicity of tools and materials at my disposal to create meaningful art. Since early on, my work has combined a mixture of acrylics, house paint, oil pastels, and collage from my collection of antique photographs, postcards, and ephemera.
