Artist Statement:

I make art because I like to create characters and worlds that help me explore my imaginative mind. I do that by creating rich environments, backgrounds with bold colors, and striking compositions. I create work as a journal for myself, expressing moments and situations that have affected me. My work becomes a private conversation between the viewer and I. I develop my subject matter by consistently studying new media. I passionately strive to hone my skills in each medium to fully explore its potential. Mastering the medium has become a form of free expression. By using these skills I am creating a relationship and enjoyable experience.
