Recently, I’ve been captivated by the dynamic interaction of alcohol ink, the contrast between cool and hot tones and the fluidity of line movement.

About the Artist

Born in Baltimore City, raised in the county and now living in Manchester, I'm a true Marylander. While my handcrafted items can be found on my Etsy shop, AlwaysTRUembroidery, I’m currently channeling my creativity into large-scale wall art.

Artist's Statement

As a self-taught artist, my work is a reflection of the personal journey I’ve embarked on to explore creativity without formal boundaries. I’ve always had an affinity for drawing and doodling, but four years ago, I began experimenting with embroidery. I draw every piece myself and I love the challenge that comes with learning new stitches, finding the right texture for each element and making the piece in my head come to fruition. Recently, I’ve gravitated towards acrylic paint and alcohol ink. My current focus on larger line movement pieces and adding my twist on doodle art is fueling my creativity. I’m driven by the hope that my passion for art can be a sustainable way of life. My goal is to make a living from my art, sharing pieces that resonate with others while pushing myself to expand my creative voice.
