Visual Art – Nashville

To write something about how I am inspired and what makes my work come to life is much more stressful than the "work" itself...In a nutshell, I can not imagine NOT having these colors and textures, lines and forms running through my head whenever they like. I dont have a certain genre, or a certain underlining theme. My art is just an extension on ME...sometimes rough, sometimes smooth, sometimes full of light, sometimes full of darkness, it can be ugly, and beautiful all at the same time...Unique is probably the best way to describe it. It honestly still shocks me to see the reaction that people have to my work, because to see them smile, or frown...or even just to sit and ponder makes me feel really happy because it honestly is just a simple yet complex extension of myself. To have the ability to create something that can give someone whom I have never met an emotional reaction is such a rewarding thing.
