Artist Statement
I believe that human experience
and emotions are most naturally and profoundly expressed through art. A work of
art can capture all of the beauty and pain of life, and hold onto it. For me,
art brings personal growth: I can step back from my creation and uncover deeper
layers of myself. This expanded vision of myself inspires my future work and my
teaching. As an art teacher, I like to inspire people in the same ways that art
inspires me.
If a viewer can identify him or herself within
my art, or make a connection with my art, then the viewer can believe that what
is felt is real and justified. Art brings faith, and faith is that for which
all are searching. Through art, people find their own inner peace, and envision
or become aware of a better place for themselves in this world.
