Artist Bio

My work is about how we see ourselves, and what it feels like to get there.

​

I paint Black women in ways that feel honest soft, and fully held. Not performance, but truth. There is a quietness in my work, a stillness that allows each subject to exist without needing to prove anything. That matters a lot to me.

​

I didn't always create from this place. I had to learn to name it. Put it front and center.

​

I didn't have to learn to take up space. I've always moved through the world with a kind of freedom, untouched by the need to shrink myself for anyone. I wasn't performing it but I wasn't naming it either. It was simply how I existed.

​

What changed was my awareness.

 

Over time, I began to recognize that what I carried naturally was powerful. Not loud or forced, but steady, grounded, and fully my own. As that understanding deepened, my work shifted. The images I chose to paint became more rooted, more assured, more at ease.

​

That clarity is what I paint from now.

​

My work reflects my identity, care, and the quiet power of being seen, not just by others, but by yourself. I want women to encounter these pieces and feel something familiar. To recognize themselves. To feel seen in a way that is both gentle and undeniable.

​

This isn't about becoming something or someone new. It is about recognizing what has always been there, and allowing it to exist, without question
