Hello, can I ask how long you've been making art? I'm curious! You have a specific style so that makes me think you've been at it a long time and slowly come into it. Also, I love how atmospheric your art is, each piece pulls me into the scene and I can see it playing in my mind if that makes sense. All the best :-)

i am fine with picking my way through writing a novel since i finally had to question why i was labeled a perfectionist at a young age for wanting to do things well and i now know that in fact the very high standards i have for myself are achievable and have always been achievable. i may as well bleed and sweat and throw up my way to the pinnacle. so long suckers
Aviatrix Sweaters (American, 1930s), designed by Lucille M. Dingley (1911-2003). ASU FIDM Museum.
These 1930s sweaters bear labels indicating Lucille M. Dingley designed them “exclusively for women flyers.” Dingley knew a thing or two about flying: she was a U.S. Women Army Service Pilot (WASP) during World War II, the manager of the Auburn-Lewiston Airfield in Maine, and a member of the Ninety-Nines, the Sportsman Pilot Association, and the Whirley Girl Helicopter Club. It’s unknown if Dingley designed the patterns or simply lent her name to the fashions, but the flight diagrams rendered on these hand-knit tops were lifted directly from the aeronautic textbooks a whole new generation of adventurous women were studying in flight schools

I urge people to donate to Dem Bois, a non profit organization that provides trans masculine and trans men of color grants for transition related surgeries as well as care packages.
During the height of covid when I was unemployed and homeless, Dem Bois provided me with a care package that, more than anything, gave me hope to keep living and a reminder that my community exists and is one of perseverance and survival.

hi ! are there any artists that influence your painting style?
IMO: natural or enjoyable parts of process + problem solving + inevitable human deficits = "style"
