Hello I am Alease. I am native of South Carolina currently living in Rock Hill, with my beloved dog, Maxwell. I am a mixed media artist and an Associate Professor at an art & design college. I've been creating artwork every since I can remember and teaching in higher education for 12 years.

I have always been wildly drawn to the process of creating beautiful things from found objects, and discovering inspiration from all around me. My passion is to breathe new life into bits and pieces of old, worn, and forgotten elements and incorporate them into my artwork. I enjoy implying the rough outline of a story with the images I chooses and by including bits and pieces of ephemera. My love for family history led me to explore photos as another way to share life stories and family experiences. I believe that my combined art forms, put simply, are a celebration of family and life. Family photos call forth pride and the need to celebrate being part of a family. My passion for family history has allowed me to construct compositions made from fragments of different photos, objects, and letters to tell their unique stories. My work further allows the viewer to create their own stories about their families and the people who grace their lives.
