I’m an artist specializing in the depictions and empowerment of the LGBTQ+ community. You can find me in person at exhibits around the United states and online at thaddeusart.com (where you can also find my exhibit schedule). 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️💖🫶✊🍑
Wishing all of you a very Happy Holigays!
Here’s a preview of what’s to come in 2026, as Empowerment 2025 becomes Passion Project 2026!
