I'm from Colorado Springs by way of Oklahoma City, OK. I definitely don't consider myself a visual artist. What drives me, what I love to create, is story, whether in short story form, poetry, or even within Dungeons and Dragons. I find the act of creating a story with others in role-playing games, such as D&D, creates community and relationships in groups of people that may never have come together with such a driving force as the "game" we play. The stories told around those tables speak from our experiences, our pains, our hurts, our loss as well as our love, our hopes, our healing. I create spaces where healing is possible, whether they know it or not. That is my practice. That is my calling. If I sell my artwork, I will make food with my D + D partners, furthering our shared experiences, creating community and camaraderie.
