Intricate Anxieties
fine-liner ink pen, 2023-2024
These hand-drawn pieces were created for me to release my anxieties into pieces of art that do not require perfection. The impulsive yet intricate little marks and dots come together to form something I could never have imagined.

CAPS has partnered with campus community artists during Mental Health Awareness month to share stories of mental health experiences and recovery.
So Empty, Yet So Full
Mixed media, 18"x24", 2022
This piece expresses my thoughts and feelings relating to my stress and mental health. Sometimes I feel empty, while my thoughts consume me. I felt like things are getting better, as I had found some online communities and friendships that helped me escape from the stress of life as well as sending me love and encouragement. Though, things were also getting worse at the same time. At that point in my life, I didn't have boundaries and I would often give absolutely everything I could possibly give in order to do the "best" that I can. I spent countless late nights in the studio, and several all-nighters in order to finish various art projects, disregarding my mental health in the process.
Currently on display and open during office hours! (M-F 7:30am-5pm)
The IUSD Student Affairs was looking for a Herron Artist to fill their space with some art and I was selected!
This exhibit showcases some of the stages I went through to get to where I am as an artist today. I have painted from life, but more recently I have begun to experiment with the abstract concept of exploring my mind through painting.
