Statement My work focuses on creating well designed compositional layouts and using media with careful attention to craftsmanship. I choose to create works that represent subjects I find visually appealing based on the elements of design. My practice is slow and careful, emphasizing skill and craftsmanship and experimenting with various techniques to explore how mediums behave and how they can best be used to effectively represent the subject. I’m interested in using exaggerated light within my works as a way to create a dramatic representation, I also find it very useful to familiarize yourself with a subject by attempting to recreate it in a drawing, similar to taking something apart and reassembling it to learn how the details fit together. Therefore, my work strays from deep emotional meanings. Instead, each work is intended to reinforce skill and induce an appreciation and understanding of the subject.
