What a year 2023 has been!! A huuuge thank you to those for giving me an opportunity to paint. As an artist, my heart is so full from sharing it with others. I'm really proud of developing my aerosel techniques, and challenging myself with colour palettes and compositions (and working w tight time constraints!!). My two goals for 2023 was to stay consistent and form community. I truly feel like I'm expanding on my creativity while being a part of the vibrant Toronto community. I am super appeciative of those visiting me, taking photos and supporting my work. It means so much to me, and I hope you know that!!! Looking back on these amazing projects, I am SO eager to see how 2024 unfolds 😇😇 LOVE YOU ALL!!!

A little 2023 skate review :) really pleased with my jam skating progress, and transition skills! What made editing this video was reliving the wonderful ppl I have met. Thanks to everyone that helped me get to where I am today 💖
Yooooooooooo painted my first mural with spraypaint! This mural is inspired by 해녀 [Haenyeo] the deep sea divers of Korea's Jeju Island. These strong ladies don't use any diving equipment, and can plunge up to 30 meters deep, even in the winter! Timelapse will be up soon 🐡🐠🐟 view it on Coxwell Ave and Lakeshore Blvd East🦐🦑🐙
Big thank you to @wallnoize for having me, @_________moises , @jrdnescobar & @torontocollective for supporting me through this 😊😊 until next time!!!

THE CAT IS OUT THE BAG!!! The BEATS + SKATES is hosting a 3-day residency on August 3, 4 &10!!! Pairing emerging artists with professionals to teach three skills-based workshops: a beatmaking intensive, a mural residency, and a roller skating residency. Each workshop is led by one or two professional Toronto-based artists teaching three residents. Due to hip hop and street art being largely male-dominated fields, Black artists, 2SLGBTQIAP, women and Artists of Colour will be prioritized for the residency. This residency is produced with the support of the City of Toronto through @torontoartscouncil 🌺 More details in my linktree!
Application Deadline: July 14 @11 :59 PM

when it comes to live painting, you never know what to expect. Originally, I was going to paint a psychedelic tiger with multiple eyes as a way of representing the random thoughts and visuals I felt while listening to the beat boxers perform. Halfway through, I had to be honest with myself and admit that I wasn't really feeling it. As an artist, sometimes these obstacles present themselves as moments of growth. Other times, a moment to step back and reevaluate. This time, I went with my gut and painted a portrait, with parts of their thoughts colliding into each other, creating a massive storm. Organized...but chaotic. But aren't we all like this in some shape or form?
BEATBOX CANADA!!!!! What a phenomenal event and community!! I call this painting 'organized chaos' because of my influence of each discipline of beatboxing, looping, breakdancing and singing all working together. Super thrilled to live paint as a part of the @beatboxcanada Day 2 🎉🎉 thanks for having me!!
