The interactions between the natural world, people, and our created environments and inventions have long been sources of inspiration. Opposition between these elements have always fascinated me and feel my work and life has abided by this fact for a long time. Not unlike life, art is a journey of learning and discovery that informs a manifested vision that serves only as a beginning of a demarcation of efforts, only to continue to evolve through one’s creative life-span. It is my ultimate intention to make art that is inclusive, integral, and that it might serve as a catalyst for exploration. –Artist statement
