ABOUT Ash

Hi, my name is Ash Murphy, I am a 29 year old proud artist. My journey has been filled with many ups and downs but nothing started to make sense or come together until I turned 21 and discovered who I truly was. Raised in a conservative household LGBTQ was never a topic of discussion, in fact I didn't even knew what it was until I graduated high school and moved out where I finally got to discover the person I am today.

I started Phoenix media when I was a teen, I posted some of my best work under that alias but in 2022 after a 5 year battle with alcoholism it was time to retire Phoenix media. I took some time away from art, got healthy and really, really inspired. I started Ashliveslife shortly after as that's what my art is all about. Me living my best life, spreading joy, and maybe be there for someone when they need it, as multimedia was there for me in my darkest hours. If you are reading this, know that you are loved, your life matters, and no matter how difficult times can get, it only takes one spark to ignite a life of beauty and joy.
