Getting Out
I drew this freehand on the computer with a mouse. She is a runaway thinking about how to escape her life.
My Funky Twisted Soul by Adande
You have to check out my friend and fellow artist of wearable art; ADANDE. She is incredible.
“It all started in the back of my mother’s art class in the heart of Bed-stuy. (Brooklyn) There I was encouraged to explore materials and discover their possibilities.”
~Adande
These one of a kind, 6 inch dolls are made out of stockings and felt. I made them after I lost my first love in 1995. They represent child like love, soul-mates. They were created for hope that I could find love so pure and innocent.

Buy Art Not People
Buy Art Not People is an initiative by artists to raise awareness and resources to combat modern slavery (aka Human Trafficking).
Slavery Today?
There are more than 27 million boys and girls, men and women currently in slavery worldwide. More than 2 million are trafficked across international borders each year by modern slave traders to meet the growing demands of modern slave holders. There are more slaves today, right now, than the total removed from Africa during 400 years of the Transatlantic slave trade.
An antique with a romantic
love story attached to it.
I was between 7 & 10 years old, drinking orange juice while taking a break from my new swing sliding board set. I looked out the window and watched the sun shine on my swing set, like is was sent from heaven. The orange juice and that moment was both unforgettable and simple moment.
