A VIBRANT THANG II
Exhibiting over 200 works, A Vibrant Thang II is a visual evolution of my career from an acrylic painter to a mixed media artist. This show, to me, is a challenge and reminder to remain, bold, daring, loud, and authentic. For you, it’s my hope that you’ll do the same. Whatever that means for you.
On view: “Shawty, Shawty” a collection of three 6 foot tall full body collages, “1 of Minnie”, and a selection of other works created from 2019-2025. This second iteration will include some additional works not shown in the original viewing.
The exhibition will be held at the Avondale Arts Center in May/June 2026.

What does it mean to become?
Let’s talk about it on Saturday May 30th. First up: an artist talk w/ Ariana where we’ll discuss how my journey as an artist has shaped my own becoming. Then you can tell us about your journey open mic style. If you have an item that represents this journey for you…bring it! We wanna see.
It’ll be fun.
