ARTIST STATEMENT 

I create drawings, paintings, prints, mixed media sculptures, and wearables, reflecting the things that are fundamental parts of my existence. My pieces represent an object, time period, or feeling from my life in an effort to give thanks and glory to God for all He has given me. 

Using a large variety of materials, including watercolor, charcoal, antique silverware, metals, paper mache, and whatever else I can get my hands on, I strive to create things with the utmost craftsmanship and attention to detail. My process is intense, and I pour my heart and soul into the pieces I create. I draw inspiration from the things around me, whether that is nature, my bedroom, or any of my earthly belongings. I like to use recycled or everyday materials in my work to give otherwise mundane objects a new purpose, just as God has done for me. 

The purpose of my life is to give glory to God. Doing this unconventionally, through art, brings me closer to myself and strengthens my faith. The goal of my art is to bring light to all of the beautiful things God has created, all of the earthly things that we get to enjoy for the short time we are here. By using recycled objects to create jewelry, watercolor to paint scenes of beauty, or other mediums to build 3D representations of my time on this earth, I hope my pieces leave the viewer in awe of how beautiful simple things can be.
