Artist Statement

As a BFA student, I am figuring myself out and experimenting with art materials and different mediums. Drawing has been my main focus as I continue practicing, such as Copic markers, colored pencils, and ink. Whimsical Fantasy is a huge theme in my artwork to help myself and others cope and escape from the real, cruel world, but as I continue my learning, this may change.
