Rooted in the grounds of the rose city, my passion for the arts have always been in me from a very young age. My art is inspired by the many journeys I go on and also the unique people that I meet along the way. I've used many mediums, including paint pen, colored pencils, sharpie, and acrylic paints. I am currently working on getting my first coffee table art book published called Eyes Wide Open. I make art from my heart! The world is your canvas—paint your colors!

Welcome to the wonderful world of WORMSWORMSWORMS, a comic submission for syndication. The premise is that a worm with two heads is politically divided into a socialist and a capitalist and they are both under the thumb of a fascist bird. This is the character sheet, and a few examples of comic strips. I hope you enjoy them!

Functional pottery is important to be. I want my art to be used for many experiences. Each piece is microwave and dishwasher safe. I've been on a dinnerware kick lately and working on getting into a local restaurant.

Just over 11” wide for now… It will shrink as it dries and gets fired through the kiln.
Snack Plates
Microwave and dishwasher safe.
Rainbow Dinner Plate
Playing with lines and color. What better than a whimsical rainbow?
