Hi I’m Rubeen, 

I was born in San Francisco, CA and spent most of my life in Cleveland, OH. I moved to New York in June of 2023.

My paintings focus on expressing emotion through figurative surrealism. 

My ‘tea cup head’s’ are symbols of acceptance, openness, and being welcoming.

A lot of my poetry is like a prayer to God, thanking Him and asking for His guidance.

I intend to inspire others to honor their feelings so we can be ourselves authentically. I hope you love my art as much as I love making it.
