Hi! I'm an artist & illustrator working in Queens, NY. My recent artworks are large and done entirely in ballpoint pen where themes of self-destruction, rage, alienation, and ecstasy are explored. Essentially, I'm redefining the expectation of 'feminine' art. Follow along...

Latest progress shots of Piece 3 (title will change). This spring ahead shit on top of being a girl in the world is draining, y'all.
Also, anyone else pissed that Nosferatu (2024) didn't receive more award recognition? It's a GD masterpiece. Just wtf. #artist #traditionalart #deepthoughts #BIC

What Rep Al Green did is what they all should have done
Anyone who remembers the Civil Rights Movement, Vietnam War protests and ACT UP know that resistance means nothing if the party you’re resisting can just ignore you

I know I’m not supposed to compare my senior cat to a human child … I know this.
BUT when it’s 4:30 AM and my cat eats his kidney support food vs rejecting it and throwing up later, the triumph is similar to getting a 3 year old to eat their veggies.

This is a really dramatic photo of my cat, Ollie.
He likes to sleep on my desk under the plant light :)

When I'm frustrated by the direction of an artwork, I turn it upside down and/or use a mirror or camera. This helps correct:
🔍Composition 🔍Contrast & 🔍Eye movement/balance
It's a real time saver (art feat: Catfish, Bic pen approx. 30" x 42")

Quick opinion question for artists: Do you think people are born with artistic talent and/or with a genetic predisposition to be an artist OR can anybody become an artist if they practice? Go.

The fact that a place called CareerVillage.org is constantly looking for *volunteers* to teach their classes on how to have a *career* in various fields is laughable. Step one to having a career...make people pay you for your expertise.

WIP!! Some images of where I end up after using a projector. This artwork is the third in my series and is cleverly called ‘Piece 3’ 🙃 #bicpen #artistinnewyork #fineart #instudio #illustration #WIP #workinprogress

If you've ever bought digital books on Amazon, now would be a good time to download backup copies for your personal archive. They'll be discontinuing the ability to download e-books on Feb 26th and everything will have to be done through their ecosystem.

David Lynch famously said it takes an artist 4 hours to paint for 1 hour. So relatable. Here’s an evolution of a concept sketch that I refined in Procreate. Next step: project onto my next large scale work surface. #bicpen #artistinnewyork #fineart #instudio #illustration

Here is a video of my latest COMPLETED work, Catfish, done entirely in ballpoint BIC pen on printmaking paper. I spent a long period of time in darkness in a sort of stasis - like a catfish lurking at the bottom of a lake. #bicpen #artistinnewyork #fineart #instudio #illustration

There's an app that helps you make 5 phone calls in 5 minutes to your reps. Remember, you can tell them to VOTE NO to Trump's horrible plans. In the words of AOC, make them move slower so they break less things and they HEAR your resistance. 5calls.org
5 Calls
Spend 5 minutes. Make 5 calls. Make your voice heard.
