I’ve loved art since I was a child growing up in Memphis, Tennessee. I was constantly doodling or sketching. It calmed and quieted my racing mind. Over the years, I stopped making time for it. In 2019 I caught myself doodling during a meeting at work and it made me smile to remember how much I used to love it. So when the pandemic hit, I went out and bought an iPad and Apple Pencil. All of my art is digitally created. I enjoy both the structure of realism and the creative freedom of abstract. What started as a way to quiet my mind has led me here.
