 * Artist Statement

After three years of art I’m left with a plethora of art work varying greatly in style, message, subject and of course talent. Looking back on work from 9th grade and even some from 10th grade I’m left cringing and questioning my judgment. Why did I use //those// colors? Why did I think //that// was a good idea? Why did I draw //that//? But at the point in my life it probably made perfect sense. Now? I can’t say the same. After combing through my pieces I’ve recognized how I’ve grown over the years and how I’ve changed, after all art is an expression of personality. My pieces in my portfolio were chosen due to exactly that, change is obvious throughout the selections. To compare myself to a shark, to stop moving is to die, my goal as an artist is to always progress, improve and change. I hope people will recognize how I’ve improved and changed over the years and how my opinions have changed as I aged and matured. That after all is the joy of being an artist; it’s an abstract representation of a point in my life and after putting so much of my life in art through my adolescent phrase I will always be left with reminders of who I was throughout my life. For me art is a way to take a snapshot of me, of my thoughts, style, personality and feelings at every point in my life. Art is a way to capture the world around me as well as the world within me and impose my own reality on it. Everyone has a different reality, everyone sees the world through different colored glasses and art is a way to show personal realties and my portfolio is my world in physical form. || Gasoline Bubble || Fall of the King || Study of the Masters || The skeleton underneath || Free thinking || Oh! || Symetrically hilarious ||
