Process Painting & Breaking Trauma Cycles
Exploring the inner landscapes of trauma and the spiritual realms of nature.
From Shadow to Symbol
Each painting begins with a question or a felt sense. I let intuition guide the way and follow its energy until each painting feels complete.
Born out of my daily creative practice, Fuck That channels anger at the global rise of authoritarianism and the way empathy, human rights, and truth are being attacked. This piece is a reminder that standing for love, justice, and care for our planet is not radical. It’s necessary.
Spirals have been appearing in my paintings for years, symbolizing the continuous dance between growth and return. Carl Jung described the spiral as a metaphor for the psyche’s journey, moving in circles around a center, yet never quite the same, always evolving.
This piece was painted in 2019 after the passing of Nipsey Hussle. His impact reached far beyond music; he modeled a path of self-determination, generational wealth-building, and uplifting the community that raised him.
All proceeds will be donated to the Neighborhood Nip Foundation, supporting Nipsey Hussle’s legacy of building opportunity for youth in South Los Angeles.
Why I Create
I paint what we’re not supposed to talk about. My goal is not to make pretty things, but to let the creative process transform or alchemize something in me, and hopefully in the viewer.
