She's a single mother of two who adopted me as a teen.

On Our Way Home 🌅
1/ Let’s talk STORYTELLING. Quite a few artists have reached out to me asking for tips on creating a storytelling series so I put together a thread based on my experience from creating The Lurkers.
Let’s dive in. 🧵👇
Ever since I moved to NYC 5 years ago, it's been my dream to create cover art for the

.
Not aware of any formal way to make submissions, so I'm just putting this out there.
(NOT an actual cover, yet.)
I released my SR genesis 'Kid Problems' this January & what an incredible journey has it been since then!
I have 4 wonderful & encouraging collectors, a live auction at Sotheby's, and my work will be displayed on a billboard in Hong Kong later this month.
Words fail to…
So sorry if you're tired of seeing me on your TL today, but I have to share this...

Just received an email inquiring about my work from a NYC real estate developer who found me on IG.
Googled the name and read an article about him on artnet. He's a trad art collector who has names like Keith Haring and Banksy in his collection.
Couldn't be more motivated!
I illustrated & wrote a book.
I got it featured on Fox News.
I collected art for the 1st time & made so many amazing friends.
I was able to help my family & support those who I love.
I finally felt happy & was able to fully express myself creatively.
All because of Solana. 🖤
