Mysterious fields of golden flames, coasting the planes of a manganese forest. A study for a larger painting❤️‍🔥

I’m excited to be selling this small piece with @everydayorig ! It was originally featured for their annual ‘Newbie November’, welcoming on new artists for a month. Now I’m happy to be sharing more paintings with them soon in the new year!

Some Shots from the Homeless and Healthy talk that took place Nov 19th, 2019. I'm happy to say the PTM "Homeless and Healthy?" panel discussion went well, and served to highlight that not only do homeless people deserve to be seen and listened to, but that, coupled with poverty prevention, the data shows a great deal of the pain of the homeless crisis can be abated with medical and mental health interventions.
.
Added Backstory: Our student group in cooperation with the Pass The Mic group at UofT, went out to do live portraits of homeless individuals around Toronto during the summer. Thanks to @starbucks 's donation to the project, we were able to provide each of the individuals with giftcards, and thanks to the efforts of our group members, and the consent of our interviewees, whilst the PTM members performed a medical questionnaire, we were able to create life drawing & paintings that would become art to be sold to help the homeless.
.
I am also glad to report our group donated 50% of the proceeds to the Scott Mission.
.
If you'd like to see the work, and support our efforts to help the homeless, we will be announcing future events, so follow us here or join our Facebook group (link in bio)

You can also dm us to buy the work, and help someone right away

So grateful to everyone who came out to see my ‘Children of a Midnight Spring’ exhibition at the @likelygeneral !

I’m honored to have had my first solo show with Likely, joining their history of incredible local artists 💖

It was wonderful meeting so many people for the first time and saying hello to old friends I haven’t seen in years.

Thanks to everyone who wrote such sweet messages in the guestbook; it was like a little surprise every time I visited the space!

We’re almost at the end of 2021, and I feel like this year has been so full of highs and lows that I’m glad I could have ended it with this special exhibition. Now I’m excited for more collaborations planned for the new year 🥳

Special thanks to Brooke, @anthonyrpace , and @armando.di.gregorio for donating so many hours helping me put the show together 🙌

Swipe for a fun find from the de-stall process
