Adversity in my life generates the energy for my strongest work, and when my life is free of struggle my work is devoid of passion. Social strife, and the bridges I have burned cause me unbearable pain, which I cannot move beyond until I expel onto paper. The end of an emotionally abusive relationship led me to make these mixed-media works on paper, as part of a series exploring lust, pain, and passive-aggression.
