In this board collection I explore freedom and rebellion and push the envelope on what it means to be a fine artist. I have never been able to play small or fit within your white walled box. Fine art for all.
I tell stories through color, and this medium and shape gave me that creative license to speak my truth and shine light on others hidden sorrows and joys.
