Hi, I'm Love'! I'm a multidisciplinary artist that gravitates towards visuals and music .A lot of my work serves to transmute my heavier emotions, and juxtapose contradicting thoughts and ideas in visual form. I began creating in my childhood, from drawing and painting, writing and performing original scripts, and recording myself singing songs that I'd make up. Over time the subject matter has changed, but I still implement the same childlike wonderment and exploration with the mediums that I use.
