music and animated
personalities. I was often
surrounded with
creative and eclectically
colorful people. It was at a
young age that I began to
enjoy the art of watching
people and things, reading my
surroundings. I began to draw
as a child but was not content
with "coloring between the
lines".
I wanted to draw the picture
the way I saw it. If a tree
was brown
I could bring it back to life
and make it green.

catalyst to maintaining our
longevity and happiness.
Because of this it was only

| Biggest Artistic Inspiration |
I would have to say it is Monet because of his facsination with light. His work is uncomplicated yet perfectly suggested without looking purposeful. Its all in my opinion brilliant and I could look at his work for hours. |

| Why Did You Become An Artist |
I became an artist for a few reasons. One being the theraputic nature, two being the peace and quiet nature of it. But, most importantly because I can take something that effected me and transfer it to something tangible that someone can recognize an emotion in it too and be able to take it to their own space. |
