Thanks for visiting! As you might expect, art is a very important aspect of my life, although I may not pursue a career in the subject. Art, for me, is more of a relaxing pastime that takes me away from reality for just long enough to create something out of the ideas swirling in my head.
Artist Statement:
The extent of my own curiosity might scare some, but amaze others. Despite being raised in a rural town with next to no outside influence, I researched the daily life, myths, and religion of cultures around the world. What I found was, quite honestly, not too surprising. They eat, sleep, work, and play like us, although they eat different cuisines, operate on their own schedules, and enjoy varying forms of entertainment. There was one subject, however, in which each culture was distinct: art. Each culture has its own style and methods of creation, something I found incredibly fascinating, considering the countless cultures embedded in the Earth’s population of 7 billion. I made it my personal goal to share my findings with my community through the creation of art inspired by the beliefs of nations around the world. My career goal will be to join a specialized medical field. Although this career isn't related to the art I love so dearly, I will one day retire from working, but I will continue to make and share my creations for the rest of my life.
