I'm excited to share that my piece
"In Bloom" has been selected to be showcased in a digital global exhibition as well as being published in an collective art book titled 'Bloom A Floral Exploration'
Thank you to @OdysseyGMedia and @thehugxyz
I donated a piece to the @quixotish#HopeWeek auction for @StJudeย Children's Research Hospital
100% of the auction proceeds go to help save children's lives
Place a bid and then spread the word and Spread the Hope!

Iโm very proud to be part of this exhibit honoring Mental Health Awareness Month. Thank you to @sheiladarcey for putting it all together and bringing light to such an important topic.
Please join me in congratulating the 38 selected artists from the @thehugxyz Arts & Healing exhibit in honor of Mental Health Awareness Month. These artists will be featured from May 1-31 at the @crypt_gallery in @DreamDWTN (NY) or @DreamHollywood (LA) hotels in partnership with @peaceinsidelive
With a total of 574 art submissions, curating this exhibit was no easy feat. I spent countless hours reviewing the art, its description, and the story of the artist who created them. To say I was moved by each one is an understatement.
The breadth of topics covered in this curation include ADHD, anorexia, anxiety, autism, body positivity, cancer, chronic illness, darkness, depression, dreamscape, duality, embodiment, grief, gun violence, healing, heartbreak, inner self, inspiration, legacy, loneliness, loss, nuerodivergence, pandemic, peace, ancestral roots, PTSD, self discovery, self esteem, survival, transformation, war.
It is also exciting to see so many countries represented including Belarus, Brazil, Canada, Germany, Ghana, Iran, Israel, Italy, Kenya, Malaysia, Malta, Mexico, Nigeria, Russia, Philippines, Spain, and the U.S.
I will be spotlighting each of the 38 artists throughout the month of May. Thank you to everyone who submitted. It has been an honor to be on this journey with you.โจ

Title: Autistic Burnout
How does art support your mental health or healing journey?
Art is my lifeline, my sanctuary in a world where verbal expression often eludes me. As someone on the autism spectrum, articulating my thoughts and feelings can be a daunting task. But through art, I find my voice. It's a form of expression that transcends the limitations of my disability, allowing me to communicate aspects of myself that would otherwise remain hidden. There's a depth to art that speaks to my soul, reaching places within me that words alone cannot touch. It's been my steadfast protector through the darkest times, a beacon of understanding when the world around me feels like an enigma. Without art, I fear I wouldn't be able to navigate the complexities of my own existence. It's been my constant companion, a source of solace and strength when I've felt most vulnerable and alone.
