Digital, Printmaking, Mixed Media
I am an artist. When I create my work all that surrounds me gets molded in my mind. Art, in those moments, is a reflection of what I am thinking. It allows me to capture reality and combine it with my own imagination.
I always worked hard on anything I wanted to achieve, but the act of making art always seemed effortless, for it was a love that centered me more than anything ever has. Hours can be spent on my work, and yet, it never feels like work invested. To me making art is an escape, a chance to meditate, and very often, a time to find peace. When I am at my lowest I search high and low for inspiration. I find it with my eyes closed, and see its real state with my eyes open. I begin each piece, reflective to my present state, but as the beauty unravels my emotion travels in a positive direction. Art literally takes me out of the dark, and captures the light.
