My Skills & Experience
As an up and coming artist in my fields, I know how much hard work and careful thought it takes to succeed. My CV site is my way of documenting everything I’ve done, everything I’ve learned and how I see myself developing in the future. If you see something you like, or have any questions just let me know.
CURRENT ARTIST STATEMENT
Senior Art Show
Darkness and Death is not always meant to be ugly or scared. Sometimes the darkness can be what shines a light at the end of the tunnel. My solo show is focused on that Beuaty found in Darkness.
​
Over all the goal for my show is to tap into a world that not many people focus on. My over all body of work focuses on the beauty that can be found in darkness. Rather that darkness comes from the "freaks" hidden under a circus tent, or the dead body under the floor boards that you still hear the beating heart of.
