This collection began in 2024 and is ongoing. It is the second wave of trauma art, during which the light begins to peak through and color reappears.
I have many things to say but often few words. That is now often where art comes in. As a child, I was deemed not “the creative one” so I stayed in my lane. A childhood riddled with parental addiction, suicide/mental health issues, and abuse created an adult stuck in survival patterns, depression, and anxiety. In 2015, My father’s passing by suicide and my second daughter’s birth occurred in less than 48 hours and finally sent me on a path of reconnecting with my inner child, healing deep wounds, leaving an unfulfilling marriage, and becoming an active participate in my life. Art continuously shows up in various forms to light the path to my highest self. I hope my paintings make you feel something.
