I'm a Houston Texas based artist, My art is my passion in life, its what I plan on dedicating my life to. I also enjoy writing, reading, learning new things. I enjoy studying philosophy and learning about the world. I haven't traveled much, so that needs to change soon!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on the strict artist budget, I'm thinking about WWOOFing at some point, but I'd like to experience the art scene in some new cities and meet new artists and interesting characters. I have a friend that hosts couchsurfers and its always interested me, but now I think its time to start doing some traveling, life is oh so short.

Interests

I spend most of my time thinking about art or coffee. I like gardening, though I mostly stick to cacti, I tend to forget about my plants and cacti seem to enjoy that. I'm very open to music, very very open. I like camping a lot as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I quit my job and applied for an artist residency program here in Houston and got it, spending 2015 learning the business and breaking ground on my career.

Teach, Learn, Share

I draw and paint a lot, I can always show what I know. I'm really working on my art career and have a good understanding of the business and what it takes to build a career. I have some pretty great organic drink recipes and food recipes I have perfected as well.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a very odd collections of hobbies and semi-useful knowledge that I can share, but if you enjoy art, we will get along.
