I am not just a painter, I’m a sex worker. I create and sell adult content. A job that I started to supplement my income as a creative. Now it’s a job I love, appreciate and value as part of my creative expression and process.

 

In moments of my life I have fought with shame surrounding my sexual nature, questioning the things that turn me on, wondering if I was abnormal or un-feminist, or simply a slut, but I have always managed to find ease, comfort and acceptance in my sexual being once more. These cycles of shame and acceptance have allowed me to reflect on how I view myself, they have shown me my own weaknesses and taught me to judge less and connect more. Taught me my shame grows from ego, and in truth I am no different from anyone else, that there are millions of people who think and feel just like me, and if that is the truth then why should I hold shame around something entirely normal.

 

During my digital sex work I have seen a side of humanity that hates sex, that see’s it as dirty and wrong. It has introduced me to people that struggle to express their sexual desires, often grabbling with a constant internal battle of “this is wrong” over the most natural human urges and these are the people, the mind sets I wish to change. Because I am here to tell you it is not wrong.

 

I would love for all humans to find love in expressing their sexual side. To know there is nothing wrong with sex, there is also nothing wrong with kinks, or fetishes or fantasies or rubbing cake on yourself because it makes you feel good! There is nothing wrong with adults playing and expressing sexual urges, there is everything right with it! We as humans need room to be ourselves, and in doing this it is a lot easier to find sexual fulfilment. This is what I aim to express in my paintings, I make them playful and naughty and kinky, so that other kinky humans know that they are not alone. So that someone can see their fantasy or their bedroom life as a form of art that is worthy of being expressed.
