a bit of story, bit of art, just a lil bit

Since the age of 5 I have always been drawing or creating something. just like my academics learning and retaining art has always been a challenge for me because of my ADHD and other mental health issues. I still pushed forward and studied fine arts with the focus in drawing , painting and sculpting. I had to drop out of school for the first time in 2004. Went back to school to study Design back in 2010. Again I had to drop out

I never knew how much potential I held in me because in High school my art teacher never helped me out or directed me at all in how to do things. Even when I asked her to show me . she would just blow me off. t She actually held me back from going to the Art school of my dreams at the time because she would not help me put together a portfolio or write me a letter or recommendation. So I had no chance at all. How do I now I would of got in? All this stuff I am showing you most of it came after one year of a few teachers taking the time to help me refine my talent. My teachers at my first community college were asking me what I wanted to do and where I wanted to go to further my education so they could write me letters of recommendations.

sadly life got in the way and I had to drop out before I could finish. I actually didn't do any art from 2004 to 2009. I felt like. what was the point? I felt lost with my art.


I wanted to share some of my early work. this is from the years 2002 - 2010. Most of it is before 2004. everything else from 2012 to current is on my IG.

thanks for reading.

Loved reading a bit about your journey. I particularly love the heart piece. Unfortunately schools rarely provide students with the opportunity to thrive. I'm glad that you kept on creating.
