brave faces who fight the stigma - a series
As someone who has struggled with anxiety during the majority of my lifetime, I often found art to be my best outlet. I would channel all the debilitating negative thoughts into something beautiful and ultimately something I was proud of. With the heightened anxiety amounting in our current physical and political climate, my paintings help ease my own worries and provide me with path I can control.
In an effort to connect my experience with a larger audience, I have been painting celebrities that are very vocal about their issues with mental health. By painting these celebrity portraits, I am reinforcing these important conversations that help to further destigmatize mental illness. I am hopeful that if others see my art they will be reassured that they are not alone.
Once exhibited, a portion of any profits will be donated to various mental health charities :)
