I want to make beautiful things. Even if nobody cares. Continue reading Who Cares
Twelve months. That’s how long I’m giving myself. A year off social media — off the endless scroll, the noise, the pressure to be “seen.” I don’t hate it. I just miss me. Somewhere in between the likes and the algorithms, I stopped noticing the quiet things the ones that used to make me feel … Continue reading Twelve Months
Some nights the mirror feels like an enemy. My face looks wrong. My hair won’t listen. My body doesn’t belong to me. And the weight of it all folds into the same conclusion I hate myself.

They don’t second-guess every move. But I do. I hesitate. I doubt. I look at my work and wonder … Continue reading The Distance Between the Artist I Am and the Artist I Want to Be
There’s something about a door that makes you pause. A door isn’t just an entryway—it’s a symbol, a threshold between what is and what could be. When I saw this one, marked “Studio 1,” I felt something stir. A quiet kind of longing. A Dream Framed in Light and Shadow For as long as I … Continue reading Studio 1: A Door to a Dream
