Artist‘s Statement
When I write, I write for many reasons. Sometimes, it’s for myself- writing is a way to vent. Other times, I write to convey my feelings to another, letting the paper say the words I never could. But mostly, I write for everything, for everyone. I write about the deepest parts of myself, wrap it up in a pretty satin bow, in the hopes that when you open it, you discover the deepest most inner parts of your self. A gift from me, to you. One you did not ask for, but one I hope that you will need.
