My ManifestoI AM A STAND FOR
DIVERSITY & AUTHENTICITY. Over my lifetime, I’ve discovered that conforming to ‘cohesiveness’ is stifling and stunting to my soul. I dance to my own beat, and if I want to draw a tulip one day and paint an abstract design the next, I do it. Sometimes I do what I was taught NOT to do: using paint right out of the tube—without mixing it first (gasp!)—I’m kind of a rebel that way. I may have a BFA degree; however, I believe artists should be valued for the courage it takes to create and for what we contribute to humanity. I work in a diverse number of mediums—design, illustration, painting, calligraphy, typography, photography, writing, etc. I celebrate and embrace freedom of expression, variety, and infinite possibilities. |
