Ballerina
Life is simply a dance. Maybe not a ballet piece, but more of a Jazz or contemporary. We all dance for some odd reason-whether we like to or not. We all put on a performance when we don't need to. So even though I stopped twirling on stage, I still find myself twirling at home, at school, or even when I'm writing- trying to find answers to some of my biggest questions about humanity.
Streaming Memories
This was an assignment for class, where we had to combine photos we personally took to create a personal image.
My Mama’s Smile
"My Mama’s Smile" illuminates my mama’s persona, with high contrast and a smile of wisdom. The blank background alludes to the everyday feeling of delight. Catharsis extends beyond the performing arts—sometimes the most precious moments are best captured in a bold illustration, an imprint in memory.
Fruit Parade
This scene was a spectacle from my dream one night. Although it was extremely short, it stuck with me when I woke up and I had to record it down.
Stormy Eye

Ford Cobra Teapot
My original idea was to create a teapot, however, I wanted to add a creative spin to the simple designs I initially had. So, I decided to combine a simple teapot design with a more complex sports car. I chose to draw inspiration from a vintage sports car, the Ford Cobra.
Social Studies
In my work, Social Studies, I wanted to show how schools aren't entirely about education, but is the main way a majority of students meet new people.
The Color Within Us
This art piece represents the many emotions embody. Each color nod to an emotion and the blending of the colors is the mix of those emotions.
Flower Diptych
I was inspired by some flowers I took near my school. In addition, I was finding the best way to illustrate my art piece.
Breaking Free
This piece represents the different stages of growth as a person. Upon first sight, you see a box that resembles human-like features with feet, a hand which is the handle, and a hanging brain on the inside.
Fractured Affirmations
To me this piece represents how much we can damage ourselves to create something that is seemingly beautiful. flowers that are put in a vase eventually die, they are not constant, and in the process of potting those flowers the person the body was attached to gave everything for temporary flowers.
Neal killing himself to follow instructions
