Artist Statement

I create to bridge fantasy and reality—inviting people to reconnect with wonder. Rooted in a love for classic animation and sketching, my work explores dreamlike moments and the emotions we often overlook with age. As a queer, quirky, and imaginative artist, I aim to celebrate individuality and playful expression in every piece. Whether personal or commissioned, my work is meant to spark joy, curiosity, and a sense of infinite possibility.
