Ominous
Outlooks
Artist Educator Activist
Ominous Outlooks is a surreal brand made to reach others in the places that they are in life. It is my voice to others and myself. My body of artwork is predominantly fiber arts, with some drawing, painting, and sculpture involved as well. My work advocates, educates and validates the struggles of living with disabilities.
Most of my work is based around the struggles and triumphs of living with chronic illness. I am disabled, but not crippled. I am proud of how I reach others. I have suffered a great deal of trauma in my life and I try to share the lessons I have learned through my art. Throughout my childhood and adulthood, my imagination has guided me through the valleys and mountains of life. I hope my art will lead my viewers to better places as well.
