Had the honor of displaying artwork along side @brian_branch and others during the HIV summit hosted by @irishouseinc

Thank you @justicedwight for including me.

The summit was informative and I learned a few things.

My biggest takeaway from the summit:
What you don't know can affect you.
Knowledge protects you.

Stay informed and stay vigilant about your health. ❣️ by @kya_makes_art

Hey!

A hack is a hack. You'd be surprised what makes some if these pieces easier to make. It could be technical, yet it doesn't always need to be.

Just needs to be right 😊

Follow me to see what's next 🥰

This piece started as a 12-minute video… and even after that, I still had to wait for it to dry. 🎨
Creative process isn’t always fast; sometimes it’s patience, layers, and trusting the vision.

Stay with me through the process as I build this piece from start to finish. From wet paint to final details, every step matters.

If you love behind-the-scenes art videos, painting process reels, and watching artwork come to life, you’re in the right place.

Be sure to follow me and watch how this piece unfolds

Sometimes I can free-ball my creative process. But when I’m thinking AND creating at the same time? That’s when the weird blocks show up.

For me, references are the foundation. Some of my pieces take weeks to finish, and having a starting point keeps me grounded. That way, if I pivot mid-process or feel an upgrade coming along, I can recognize it as just t instead of confusion.

Creating while evolving is a real thing. And understanding your own process is part of the art.

This piece feels like quiet music in another room.
Soft.
Certain.
Unbothered.
'Blissfully Happy' is my favorite from this series for that reason.

The crazy thing about having a vision is that when the 1st versions doesnt match what you imagined, you can still push through and create something new.

I love that about art.

No one really knows the dorection of a piece unless you tell them and even then, you still have the power to shape it into whatever you want it to be.

There’s nothing like watching a concept in your mind come to life. ✨

Meet one of my new favorite pieces 🥰
It was created at @threadstudionyc where I had the space to think, feel, and build with intention. If you’re in need of a creative home to bring your ideas to life, definitely check them out (follow them)!

This piece is layered in clear quartz; known for its cleansing energy, clarity, and amplification of intentions. I designed it to bring beauty, balance, and brightness into whatever space it enters. 💫

When creativity connects, magic happens. 🤍

She’s called "Mini Glow"
Her energy isn’t small.

Made of fragments, like us.
Glowing regardless, like we should.
Not broken. Just beautifully pieced.
