Follow this artistI was born in New Orleans, but relocated after Hurricane Katrina in 2005.
I have always enjoyed painting and drawing since I learned how to write. Just recently I decided to pick up abstract art. I paint things based on my surroundings, conversations I've overheard, or just things that stood out during my day. I only use a brush and a palette knife to create most of my work... I'm very minimal when it comes to tools. I decided to paint abstract art because it creates conversations and it allows you to use your imagination!
