My Bio
I've always loved drawing, writing, and photography, but started to teach myself more seriously when I was ten - observing others' works, classic and current, and breaking down their construction, internally, like puzzles, reproducing methods I enjoyed in my works. Eventually, people started to notice and encourage me and express interest in my work, and would share with me the impact it had on them, the more that I learned and grew. Even though I was not earning money at that time, I count those years as successful, because our impact on people is what forms our legacy as individuals. As they say, "You can't take it with you, when you go."
As an adult, I educated myself in the basics while earning my Education degree, and opened this account to connect with other artists and expose myself to more beautiful styles and approaches. More recently, I've received interest from others, both familiar and strangers in commissioning my work, ranging from event slideshows (weddings, funerals, etc.) to book covers and illustrations. This drove me to follow where I felt God was leading me, to pursue opportunity more than stability. A decision I have to say I am glad I stuck with. I am grateful to have the opportunity to pursue my passion in a way that benefits my family financially and health-wise, and to have the ability to customize the structure of my business in a way that will enable me to collaborate with and support the passions of other artists, as well.

My hope is that my art, beyond being fulfilling for me to create, providing a new and exciting adventure for my family, and allowing me to awaken others' dreams in a concrete way, will continue to speak to other people's hearts and minds, and increasingly so as I develop as an artist.

'Ello, Everybody! Commissions are officially open for drawings, stories, diy projects, and slideshows! I know, right? For diy projects, after getting the prompt/description of the project you want, I'll provide an estimate of materials before completion, so that everyone is on the same page, cost-wise. For anything else (stories, drawings, slideshows, etc.,) the only charge is for labor, and that is also tempered out with the type of project it is. Say, a drawing for instance, regardless of if it takes me an hour or three days, I am going to look at the running rate for drawings of that type, and charge the lesser of the two. This ensures

Oh my word... I've been gone so long! Adulting is distracting, it seems, and a lot has happened irl, since my last post. I've gotten married, moved three times (one of which was almost 2 thousand miles), and have been absorbing the sweet company of m...
