So say we all
I Spy
Collage and Acrylic on Canvas
Part of the Impostor Series
Like a Russian doll, our true self gets tucked inside layer after layer of who we think we should be. This piece is about catching a glimpse of that original self—what we were, or hope to be.
Behind My Back
Mixed media on Canvas
Ever get that feeling that when you leave the room, something’s being said—and it’s probably not great?
This piece is about that low hum of paranoia, the conspiracies we invent, the inner imposter who overanalyzes everything & swears the world is against us.
Was at the game tonight and it was garbage basketball. Kerr is doing them no favors with all of the different rotations. The guys look lost out there. No flow. No confidence. Time for a reboot!
Turns out people can also hear your farts when you have on noise canceling headphones.
🎉This Just Happened!🎉
