The Human Behind The Work
Welcome, I’m Nate
As an independent artist and poet, my work explores themes of freedom, identity, and the human condition.
Influenced by personal experiences with cultural identity, sensual expression, and life after leaving a highly controlled religious environment, my work reflects resilience, self-discovery, and transformation.
With a professional background in healthcare and college-level teaching, I am especially drawn to the connection between the physical body, emotional experience, and personal meaning.
Each design begins as an original painting and develops into limited wearable collections intended to bring art into daily life.
Additional projects in writing, performance, and future visual collections are currently in development.

What is art to me?
Self-Expression- emotions, intentions, desires, and inner work taking form in the real world.
Art is any creative practice that seeks to free people of outer constraints and reflect feelings, generate questions and conversation.
Art is healing the mind and heart and spirit and soul by allowing energy to flow through a person’s unique signature style.
It is the translation of life experience, inner voices and external events into a shared medium to present to others the generation of something new.
I feel most alive when creating
