Art is a way for me to create beauty from my experiences and inspirations, to explore who I am, and create visual representations of my thoughts. I typically sketch my ideas first and then progress to painting or working with digital media. I am in the beginning chapter of my journey as an artist, therefore, I am still experimenting with different techniques and media formats as I find my voice. I enjoy working with color, experimenting with the balance between light and dark, incorporating nature and fantasy. I would describe myself as colorful pops of color amidst a dark and stormy night. The colorful pops of color is my joy, love of play, and nature. The dark and stormy night is my shadow side, the deep thoughts and difficult life experiences. Through my artwork I am able to express it all.
