Art is made by someone irl, innit?

(14 Mar 2019, 00:44)
Art is merely the painting by the mind of a thing it perceived.
Dreams are the art we paint of our reality.
(06:13 Xmas 2019; I will still take a chance by putting this here.)

Treat yourself kindly before any other, but then treat others kinder.
Life is what you make of it, so find something beautiful and make it your material for life.
But don't forget to treat it kindly, it's your material for life after all.

Primarily, I am a published poet who is active in the Sacramento scene as a performer and musician.
I use mostly Ableton to craft my beats and sounds.
I also play guitar, bass, drums, and various devices to craft music to envelop my poetry.

My goal is to make clear as day the visceral emotions life has shown me, to honor healing, to promote play, to flirt with your senses, to seduce your activism, and tickle the ears of your soul.

I believe wholeheartedly that music heals.

I keep most of my demos private, but you can message me with requests to hear them!!!
