Hi Folks, GREAT NEWS! I am an artist in residence at the wonderful Alchemy Station in Allston MA. SUPPORT MY ARTISTRY: Click the link in my bio or go to rockycotard.com and check out my shop - feel free to purchase what you like GET TO KNOW ME: I also realize that you lovely people may not know a lot about my work, so here is some information about me from my artist bio - Cotard earned his BFA in Illustration with a minor in Fine Arts from Lesley University. Since then, he has worked as a freelance artist, collaborating on books such as The Revolution That Gave Birth to Haiti. In 2022, he won the Mural Masters competition in Cambridge and was invited to showcase a solo exhibition at the Ishibashi Gallery at the Middlesex School. In 2023 and 2025, Cotard led a community engagement event at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, followed by a panel discussion on his creative background. One of his pieces from the “Don’t Call Me Sugar” installation is currently on display in the president’s office at Simmons University. His other notable collaborators include Partners In Health, and the Rhode Island School of Design, Nearpod and more. 📸: @d.nice.t HASHTAGS: #artistinresidence #bostonartist #contemporaryart #visualartist #artcommunity

I told her “...May this day be my testament of my adoration, my admiration and determination to prove my love to you. Today, and everyday after…” I told him “...I promise to try to be as patient with you as you have been with me.
