Artist's Statement...
The subject matter of my art is the visual representation of cycles and finding beauty in the world around us. Whether it's using skulls as a canvas with numerous types of naturally occurring materials, repurposing recycled items in pottery and metalsmithing or 2D paintings representing these similar motifs, I have a strong theme that represents my unique vision. I want to highlight the beauty of these objects that are either looked over or seen as macabre and give them new life. It is a way to honor the world around me and celebrate all it has to give.
