Artist Statement

I draw inspiration from the future, from the things that are important to me, and the things I want to remember. My work is informed by the subconscious self that resides in all of us, the part of you that never changes. I’d like to believe that we have the power to make today better than yesterday, to focus not on adversity, but what we will achieve in the future. Holding on to the part of you who sees a brighter tomorrow, your child-like perception of the world, informs the narrative of the representational compositions of my work. I believe imagination to be the instrument of hope, and I explore the relationship between the conscious self and unconscious self to find meaning in my own life. My pieces are a celebration of hope and our inner self, something that is ever present in the world and unchanging.
