Every BO original is more than a painting—it’s a one-of-a-kind story of resilience, healing, and emotion. Known for bold, expressive works in fine art, abstract, and impressionism, BO creates immersive pieces that connect deeply with collectors. Prints are rare, hand-signed, and special, making originals even more sought after.

For me, art is a language of emotion and connection. Over time, collectors began calling themselves “bougie” for owning a BO original—a phrase that stuck and grew into a mantra: “You’re not bougie unless you own a BO original.”

Artist Statement:

Art has always been a part of my life, but after being diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder and a seizure disorder, painting became my true outlet for healing and expression. Each piece is a page from my life’s journal, reflecting emotions, experiences, and resilience.

I work across fine art, contemporary, abstract, and impressionism—using acrylics, pastels, and oils on canvas. Every painting is a one-of-a-kind original, with prints kept rare, hand-signed, and personal. My process begins with days of reflection before painting in long, immersive sessions, often with music and tea by my side.
