When I was a Pre-Teen in 1997 - 1999 (Age 11 - 13) I loved art and had some raw talent for drawing. My parents nurtured this talent by enrolling me into many different art classes and art schools. In these classes I was taught to draw the world as I saw it in front of me.

In 2000 (Age 14) I started showing symptoms of bipolar disorder. As my mental health began to deteriorate, my art began shifting. I started to use street drugs and alcohol as a way to self-medicate. I still drew the world as I saw it before me, but my perception of reality was quickly becoming distorted.

In 2005 (Age 19) I crashed into a deep depression. I stopped writing and drawing. A year later, in 2006 (Age 20), I picked up a pen again. For the most part, the pieces I created were colourful and vibrant. Despite this fact, they were drawings built on pain.

In 2011 (Age 25) my life began to change. My art took on a new direction. I began to incorporate geometric black and white patterns into my art style. These patterns became an integral part of my work, for as I drew them they brought on a meditative state which helped to balance out my depression and mania.
I officially turned my art into a business in 2011. From 2011 to 2018 my art represented stability in my health.

In 2019 (Age 33) I began to enter psychosis again, which prompted my pieces to becomes more surrealistic. I also began keeping little sketchbooks that I call Art as Therapy. Although all my art has always been a form of therapy, the purpose of these sketchbooks was to let go of creating bigger art pieces with the hope of selling them and start creating less time consuming pieces just for myself.

The Art as Therapy sketchbooks continued into 2021 as I lived with and then began exiting psychosis. In 2021 I opened up commissions again.

In the eleven years since I officially turned my art into a career, I've gained an adequate amount of recognition through licensing, publications and having my products in retail locations. My technique and style continue to evolve, as does my subject matter.
