My greatest goal as an artist is to de-stigmatize mental illness and raise awareness around mental health. As someone who has struggled with depression, and lost close friends to suicide, my art has always been inspired by expressing how I feel when I can’t communicate it through my words.

Drawn Together is a collaborative drawing project between myself and 50+ leading artists from the NFT space. I truly believe that NFTs can be used to create positive impact, and this new market and technology is enabling all of us to elevate the conversation about mental health through our artwork.

I am delighted to also be partnering with Charitas, who agreed to match funds that we raise with this NFT. The proceeds from the sale of the final NFT, and from the individual sales of each artists contribution separately, will be going towards NAMI, an organization that works to educate, advocate, and improve the lives of people with mental illness and their loved ones.

I hope you like the piece!

Drawn Together - Mental Health Awareness

Words are Powerful. And being in your head too often can change your mental state. The words in my piece are the things I say to myself while I hold my heart to get me out of my many fears, doubts, and not being enough. When I remind myself that I am worthy, it brings me back to my heart state and growth mindset.
