Born to Create

This collection is about becoming.
About trusting yourself before you’re ready.
About choosing creation when it would be easier to stay comfortable.

About this Collection

Born to Create is a five-piece mixed media series on 18 x 24 inch canvas, created without rules, limits, or expectations. I intentionally worked smaller to give myself room to experiment. To follow instinct instead of outcome. Each piece reflects what lives inside my head: the push and pull between wanting to feel understood and fully expressing the stranger, louder, more unconventional parts of myself.

This series is my way of celebrating my birthday and the thing I am most grateful for: my ability to self-express. Creating has always been how I process, communicate, and exist in the world, and this body of work honors that freedom. It is a reminder to myself that expression is a gift, not something to shrink or explain away.

Influenced by Andy Warhol’s boldness, repetition, and unapologetic visual language, these works remix American iconography through my own lens. I didn’t plan these paintings, I let them happen, trusting my hands and my instincts. They are bold, loud, layered, and emotionally charged—just like me.

Each painting is a one-of-one original. No prints exist. This series is 100% authentic to who I am and how I create when I give myself complete freedom.
