She Bombs

December 19, 2023

⚜️During Covid She Boms started doing graffiti but as a child living in Orange County, she remembers seeing it all along the 5 freeway. She had this idea in her head that it was something only men did. It was never something she considered women doing but after a bout with cancer she knew that there was no time like the present to pursue her passion in art.

As of 2023 she has spent the better part of the past 4 years teaching herself how to make large scale murals. Fast forward to today with a knowledge of the color wheel that she gained from being a hairdresser and after successfully beating cancer she takes nothing for granted and that same spirit is seen in her adventures and her pieces⚜️
