I hope everyone is striking spending any money today. But as a reminder, spending local is always more ethical. Supporting artists is better than supporting big retailers. That being said, I feel like now is a great time to remind y’all that my work is always for sale. You can purchase anything from me, starting tomorrow.

United we can make change happen. F**k ICE, F**k Trump, F**k this administration, F**k MAGA. ICE out now. Dismantle and prosecute.

Happy New Year! (Only 9 days late… ) I am so excited to start being more active on this account again.

For those of you who know, I have been spending a lot of time working the past few years devoting my time to becoming proficient in a new medium: tattooing. While I was learning and putting in the work for the initial stage of my new career, I had to spend less time in the studio than I would have liked. Tattooing, teaching, and a studio practice left no time for a life and art making had to take a backseat to my other pursuits and my mental health.

I am excited (and saddened- bittersweet) to say that in 2026, I am stepping away from teaching to focus on growing my tattoo practice and to return to my personal artistic pursuits. This will take many forms, but the first step is coming from this new series that I have begun in my studio this past weekend. “(In)complete Sentences” is an on-going series that is a fresh take on combining all of my favorite forms of creative expression.

Let me know what you think of the new work and reach out if you have any interest in seeing them in person or acquiring them.

More news to come soon, but for now, enjoy this first piece of my new series: “(In) Complete Sentences”
