A Bit About Me

Anyone who knows me can tell you how difficult it is to explain the oxymoron that is me. Many aspects of my life contradict each other but I think that just allows me a front row view into the human experience as a whole. I would like to think that those experiences are what shape my art into something that can speak to anyone. I've always admired anything that celebrates the complex beauty of humanity and spirituality, concepts I hope my art will leave viewers questioning if they are living to the fullest.

 

I am and likely will always be a jack of all trades and this site will act as my gallery for all of it. My sincerest hope is that anyone who comes here will leave with more joy than they came with.
