Dark Necessities Painting

The cadence of my life has always revolved around change. I am a nomad and have moved nearly 100 times without ever having a true home base. I thrive on diversity both in my surroundings and the people I surround myself with — my work follows the same path. I am unafraid to explore and find solace in the absence of repetition, whether it be through working with new mediums, concepts, or ideas. Each piece serves as a narrative with self-reflection at the core. My latest series explores my passion for the written word. As a child, I was fascinated by signatures. However, I didn’t understand the distinction between handwriting and the illegible scribbles I'd see when people signed their names. I became obsessed with finding my own signature, which ultimately evolved into my calligraphic style of handwriting. I filled notebooks with whatever thoughts popped into my mind, simply to write. Today, I am replicating that process on canvas, blending the words that have inspired me with my world of abstraction.
