This collection of paintings explores sensuality, gender, illness, and myth through oil, acrylic, and mixed media from 2010–present.
LGBTQuintych: This series I completed during a 5 month advanced painting course at Mesa College. I wanted to have a consistent theme that could even extend into a realm of the Quintych; a series of 5 canvas of interconnected narratives. A mythological reinterpretation of queer archetypes in five panels.
