Before the beauty is gone

Visual arts quickly made its way to the forefront of my life as a way of expressing myself and showcasing my perspective. As a queer 17 year old artist, I strive to capture authenticity and vulnerability in my work. Slowly over time I discovered the value that is found within connecting images to a greater narrative. What I hope to manifest for the future, is the opportunity to highlight the people, places and stories that have gone unrepresented, without an audience. These hopes and manifestations have taken over the importance of my life and have become the reason I wake up in the morning; to share stories.
