About

I'm a visual artist obsessed with optimism. Originally from California, now living in New York. This is a space where I think through and share notes on art, art worlds, transparency, positive psychology, and my process.

I’ll be a visiting artist at @oxbowschoolofart this summer! Thank you @shannonraestratton and Ox-Bow for the invitation. This will be my first time as a visiting artist at an artist's residency and my first visit to Michigan. If you know any SAIC students who might be interested in the program, please encourage them to apply. I look forward to connecting with students, faculty and staff, and enjoying the pleasure of talking and thinking about art 24/7.

I'm honored to share the voice of an API community member speaking their truth, hope, and vision.

Despite everything, the good in people can be seen when we show up for our communities. ✊🏾I’ve been honored to have a productive place to put some of my energies and express APA solidarity through this group of folks. I was able to contribute artwork from my comic book, “Alive and Present: Cultural Belonging in S.F. Chinatown and Manilatown.” The ladies are Chinese fan dancers who practice in Portsmouth Square, San Francisco. The organizers in Flushing are in solidarity with SF, Oakland, Atlanta and beyond. No matter what, I’ll forever be on the side of people who work towards a future where we can all take up space, be who we are, in public, unapologetic and unafraid. ❤️

I’ve really, really enjoyed looking at Cary Leibowitz work online for many years. His installation at Invisible Exports, NYC, was a mix of early 1990s stuff and more recent versions of the same sad sack signs.
