Little girls in my generation and prior, grew up with the information that their last names were temporary. The idea of having an impermanent identity was always confusing to me. As a child, I thought that this information was super confusing and so was Hohenschuh! How could my mom’s last name go from Jones to Hohenschuh. Nothing made any sense. It took me a long time to learn how to spell Hohenschuh and it never felt quite mine.

The older I get the more I have come to love my super original last name! It has inspired me to start a Shoe Painting.

Futurism shows up in my work because I'm obsessed with movement and superimposing figures on top of each other to describe said movement. I like to paint activity and lift those people up who are getting off the couch and doing something. I came to this style independently of the futurist, by starting my career making hand drawn rotoscoped stop motions. 

I live and work in Las Vegas.
