Hello to whoever is reading this message:) My name is Nova, and I’m a young transgender woman, art has become both my safe space and my biggest passion. I create every day, exploring everything from dreamlike landscapes to intense, emotional portraits, pulling straight from my imagination and life experiences. My process is messy, honest, and deeply personal, shaped by moments of love, trauma, nostalgia, and the feeling of being on the outside looking in. I work with whatever materials feel right for the piece, oil, acrylic, pastel, wax, even found objects turned into sculpture. Creating art has given me a sense of purpose and a way to bring my inner world into something I can see and feel:)
