I am a nature surrealism artist based in Southern California. After a 10 year eating disorder, and suppressing my creativity for just as long, I am ready to live my truth as an artist.

Art has been my passion since I was young, but as I grew older, society’s voice rang in my head and I decided that being an artist was “unproductive”. I gave in to a 10 year eating disorder that ruled my life, brought me comfort in some ways but also induced extreme anxieties in others.

August 2022 I was reborn; I went through intensive eating disorder therapy to find help, and the most unexpected part about that journey was how I realized I had suppressed my creativity and need to create art for so long, that I almost forgot it was there. When you are an artist, you must create, and that is all I want to do now that my mind is free from the chains of constant hunger and anxiety about what I am consuming.

My mission is to both fulfill my dreams, and to help raise awareness for my other love: nature. I found that the combination of nature and art is what got me through one of the toughest times in my life, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the experience.

Now my goal is to give back in whatever ways I can (art sales donations, volunteering my time, talking about the issues that matter) to our planet and the natural world that I love so much.
