At the beginning of this year, I suffered a psychotic break. It was caused by an interaction between medications. I was out of work from my 9 to 5 job for 2.5 months. Every morning I would go for an early morning drive to try to make peace and simply put together the peace of mind so that I could pretend everything was OK. I took photos as I drove around, simply gaining normalcy in my life. It was a disjointed feeling because the drives did not bring peace just a way to feel not alone.

From an artistic angle, I used to compete a lot in fine art shows but I took a step back to focus more on my business. From a mental health standpoint, I was born psycho-affective, blessed with everything that comes with it and multiple other mental health disorders, including anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorders. I spend most of my day in a fantasy world.
