About

I am a self-taught traditional and digital artist from Louisiana, holding a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Digital Arts from Louisiana State University in Shreveport. My artistic practice bridges classical and contemporary influences, reflecting the cultural richness and resilience of myself. Working primarily in monochromatic palettes, my style incorporates crosshatching and pointillism to achieve depth, texture, and emotional resonance. I often use gouache and ink, a pairing that creates a tactile surface and dimensional quality that invites viewers to experience the work beyond the image itself.

Artist Statement

My current body of work centers on the tension between chaos, calm, and sensuality. Through layered dots and patterns, shifting from monochromatic schemes to vivid and traditional color palettes, I transform meticulous, almost meditative labor into expressive imagery that reflects the inner landscape of overthinking, perfectionism, and self-reflection. What may initially read as intensity or fixation gradually reveals softness, beauty, and balance upon closer inspection. My work often features portraits and organic forms, using symbolism to highlight identity, emotional endurance, sensuality, and the complexity of being seen. Each piece becomes both a visual and psychological study, inviting viewers to sit with discomfort, then discover stillness within it. As both an artist and curator, I am deeply invested in cultivating creative spaces within my community. My practice is not only about personal expression but also about contributing to a broader cultural dialogue within an ever-evolving art scene. Through my work, I challenge viewers to reconsider how they perceive control, chaos, and the quiet transformation that can exist within both.
