About Me
Thriston Bailey
I am an artist, a lifelong creator and lover of art. I am extremely passionate about sharing the abilities I've honed with the power of art to younger people still being introduced to and learning the beauties of life within our world. Giving support to those actively learning to use and love their creative voice is something that excites me.
It sparks inspiration within myself that I hope to be able to expand on and extend to others who are also looking to share that journey.
