Unmasking
🌀UNMASKING🌀
In the center of this painting there was a mask that unraveled in the process - I painted over it, telling a new story.
Layers and layers of pretense and conditioning have been revealed to me lately.
It’s been unsettling, disorienting & profound.
How many masks are we all wearing?
Some times I don’t feel like smiling.
I am meeting more and more of the core of me and I’d like you to meet me too.
Hello👋
& now, as I share this, I am laying in a beautiful forest on the Washington Peninsula, moments away from turning off my phone for a retreat I am participating in.
I am fully prepared to unravel 🐍
This is how I am reigning in my thirty-fourth year.
🍂As the seasons change and transform,
so do 👁️

For Collectors & Investors
At this time, I am not offering my original paintings for sale. My originals are my personal assets, held for shows and exhibitions, and I know their value will appreciate further after the release of my forthcoming book. These premium canvases are the closest way to bring my work into your space while I continue to steward my originals *with the exception of commissioned work.
Bespoke Canvas Edition
Each canvas print is a bespoke piece. I order, prepare, and hand-paint the edges myself, so what you receive is not just a print but a work touched directly by my hands. “Bespoke” means made-to-order, created with intention, and uniquely yours. I want each canvas piece to carry the same care and presence as my originals, so that when you bring it into your space, you feel that living connection.
Premium 16x20 Gallery Wrapped Canvas
You will receive a 1.5 inch deep, gallery-wrapped & wired lyve canvas, museum-quality archival canvas that brings out the depth, vibrancy, and detail of my work produced as a bespoke collector’s piece. The canvas will be finished with hand-painted custom edges, extending the vision beyond the print and making the piece uniquely yours. Perfect for hanging in your home, studio, or sacred space, it arrives ready to display with no framing required.
To me, the edge is where the image refuses to stop at the border. It asks us to look beyond what is immediately visible and to consider what exists just outside our field of view.
Painting the edges is my way of reminding us that expansion happens when we move past the frame, past the limits of what we think we know. The edges reflect our own process of meeting ourselves beyond comfort zones, in the places where growth, change, and possibility live.
Every time you see the continuation of color wrapping around the canvas, I invite you to remember that there is always more. More depth, more perspective, more of you waiting to be discovered.
Please note: each order is printed and shipped to me first so I can complete the custom edge painting before sending it on to you. Mentally allow for additional processing and shipping time to honor this process. Feel free to reach out to me if you would like an estimate on my timing, otherwise the invitation is to be patient.
I appreciate you.
