About Me: Bio
Artist Statement
Exploration, imagination and creation. My work encompasses these ideas as I strive to find myself through my artistic practice. I plan to continue this process of learning and exploration with each piece of artwork I create. I want to discover as much knowledge as I can while I have the opportunity to immerse myself in my own creative process, wherever that takes me.
