We know what we bring to the table.

May our joy be ungovernable. Let’s gather and gossip and organize
and alchemize. Resisting fascism requires creativity, optimism, and community care. Queer people have always shown us the way.
Unlearn hierarchies. Resist binaries. Life itself is a queer miracle.

In this series, I embrace play and experiment with color and transparency. Photo realism is not the goal. I love when mark-making creates implications. I love mixing up a glob of color and creating something recognizable in only a few brushstrokes. I love to paint from memory and imagination. If I do use a photo reference, it is a suggestion—not something to be copied.

I am a painter, and I love when paint is paint.
