Fields of Blue is a mental health and suicide prevention company created in honor of

my grandmother. In order to help others, I first needed to help myself by taking time to

prioritize self-care. This is how I invented Fields of Blue. Self-care is routinely taking

action to preserve or improve one’s health. My Self-Care packages include items such

as essential oils, lotions, candles, soaps, postcards and more. In order to properly care

for others, you must know how to take care of yourself first. Plant the seed for others,

plant the seed of Self-Care.

Artist Statement

 

My grandmother, who I was incredibly close to, got sick suddenly and died by suicide. I

was left wondering why, and how I could have helped prevent it. I use design to educate about

mental health and self care and to help prevent suicide. As a graphic designer and

interdisciplinary artist, I seek to use my experience and growth to help others find hope, build

connections, and create community.

 

I fall in love with every art process I come across. Being able to express my feelings

through different forms of art excites me and increases my creative motivation to try more. It’s

almost like being able to speak different languages through art forms. I enjoy working with fun,

bright, abstract, bold, and minimal elements while dealing with complex, emotional and

challenging topics. I use my faith and trials in life as an inspiration and foundation to create

meaningful design concepts.
