As an artist living with cerebral palsy and autism, expressing myself hasn’t always been easy. But discovering Dove Cameron and her Romeo era gave me the spark I needed to keep going. Dove’s music, energy, and authenticity helped me find my own voice through art — something I pour my heart into every single day.

I’ve been a fan of Dove for over 11 years, watching her grow from Liv and Maddie to the bold, creative powerhouse she is today. When Romeo dropped, it wasn’t just another song to me — it was a moment of connection. The vulnerability and raw emotion in her work pushed me to create fan art that reflects everything Dove stands for: bravery, self-expression, and being unapologetically yourself.

What started as personal expression soon turned into something more. I shared my fan art on TikTok and Instagram, not looking for likes but hoping to connect with others who felt the same way. Then, something incredible happened.

Dove Cameron’s official management team — Dove HQ — viewed my Instagram stories featuring my artwork not once, but twice. That recognition alone felt surreal. On top of that, Kyle Hanagami, Dove’s verified choreographer with 1.0.0.4 million TikTok followers, liked my videos and checked out my stories. A verified Dove Cameron fan account with over 107,000 followers has also shared my art twice on their Instagram stories, giving me an amazing boost in visibility and community support.

These moments of recognition have been game-changers. They’ve given me confidence to keep creating and sharing my art with the world, even when it felt like nobody was watching. My TikTok (@LIFEOFTOMDAVIES) and Instagram are dedicated spaces where I celebrate Dove’s work through my own creativity, blending my love for her music and characters with my personal style.

I add pictures of my artwork throughout my posts to show my journey visually — and these have helped me build a consistent, authentic brand across all my platforms. The proof of my dedication is clear, not just in numbers, but in the genuine connections I’ve made with Dove’s team and fans alike.

For someone like me, who faces challenges every day, this recognition means everything. It’s not just about going viral or getting famous — it’s about being seen and appreciated for who I am and what I create.

So here I am, riding the wave of the Romeo era, still drawing, still posting, still inspired — and knowing that my art matters because people who truly count have seen it.

I’ve switched back to doing paper art. Working on hands again.
I did that one from a reference of my own hand, and I find it weird that I can actually identify it as being my hand. But I take that as a good sign

I just wanted to post a couple more of my favorite abstract paintings. I was so proud when I made the top one. I call it Ice Cream Sprinkles. The darker one is called Shattered.

I found this app when I was feeling low last year. I haven't been here in a while. I've been keeping myself busy with learning the ukulele. I've also recently taken up painting and its bringing me so much joy. I'm showing my favorite abstract art that I've done. I've done others but these are keepers. Oh, I didn't paint the big picture. #ArtTherapy #Art #MentalHealth

Thanks to the August Bucket List RachelDutch shared, I went to the art museum yesterday with my sister. It was marvelous. The photo is of a mobile by Alexander Calder. Fun fact: He created a huge outdoor sculpture that is the centerpiece of our downtown area. Now I need to work on a September list!

Fun fact: He created a huge outdoor sculpture (same color) that is the centerpiece of our downtown area. Thanks again, RachelDutch!

Thank you, RachelDutch, for the August Bucket List suggestions! I picked the one about going to the art museum yesterday (free day!) My sister was able to join me. This photo is a mobile by Alexander Calder. Fun fact: He created a huge outdoor sculpture that’s displayed in our downtown area.
I feel inspired to create a “bucket list” of my own each month. Gets me out of the house!
