About the Artist

Self-identifying as a neurodivergent, two-spirit, elder storyteller deeply rooted in the roar and lore that has become Portlandia of The Left Coast, The Artist attributes success and survival (if not salvation) to superb supports, mindfulness practice, and daily creative expression in words, sounds, and images.
