I am a 19-year-old artist hailing from Spartanburg, South Carolina. My artistic journey has been deeply influenced by my early experiences attending an all-white private school, where I was the only black student. It was in those formative years that I turned to art as a source of solace and self-expression.
Currently, I am pursuing a major in Studio Art with a concentration in Drawing and Painting at the College of Charleston. My creative process revolves around crafting pieces that bring me joy and capture the essence of the present moment. My unique ability to retain vivid memories inspires my work, drawing from moments in my life that evoke a range of emotions - from happiness and hope to excitement and more.
I am dedicated to honing my skills across various artistic mediums. Through my academic journey, I have immersed myself in courses covering drawing, painting, sculpture in all its forms, and photography. These experiences have not only fortified my identity as an artist but have also equipped me with a versatile skill set that I hope to leverage in my future artistic endeavors.
Through my art, I aspire to share my personal journey, connect with others, and evoke feelings and memories in the hearts of those who encounter my work. Thank you for joining me on this artistic voyage, where I strive to bring moments of emotion and reflection to life through my creative expressions.
