From the Archive: More Early Sketches

In High School I did a lot of sketch work for therapeutic purposes as well as for school assignments and for commissions. ‘Boy & Jesus’ was done late at night (I rarely am able to get to bed early – quite the night owl 🙂 ) and ‘Home at Last’ was part of my AP Art Portfolio.

If you ‘Like’ please share! Thank you in advance ♥

About the Artist

I’m an artist, author, and poet. My work is often shaped by lived experiences and by paying close attention to the world around me… nature, and the people who have helped shape my life.

I usually paint first, and the words come later. Painting has been the safest way I’ve found to be honest about things that are hard to say out loud, and over time I’ve noticed other people finding their own stories in the work too.

My paintings are meant to comfort, to feel like a presence rather than a statement, and to give space for each person to find their own meaning. The connection that happens there matters most to me.
