About
the Artist
I am a native Texan, raised in the Houston area, surrounded by loving
family and friends. My interest in art began in high school, with my
first painting class. Since then, almost every day has included several
hours of painting. I received my BA in Art (and another in History) from
Houston Baptist University, in 2008.
I believe that once we are
here on Earth, we’re really never gone, because we live on in memories
of loved ones and through our expressed creativity. Such as art -
through which we leave a little piece of ourselves behind in time, for
others to enjoy, or to simply capture a moment in time.
Brushes, paints, fabrics,
photographs, color and form are tools to interpret all that is our
world. I am intrigued by human relationships and passion. The way in
which people interact through body language and emotions is so
fascinating and beautiful, that it can only be explained by the
complexity in which God created mankind.
Not one detail of this
world can be overlooked for its splendor and function. Often when I feel
overwhelmed by emotion - whether it's peace, anger, love, or confusion,
I find the desire to create. In this process I take a journey into my
imagination, into a world where I have the control to mold and create,
and I allow myself to escape through free expression.
The goal of my artwork is
to invite someone, even if only for a moment, to glance into the
imaginary and feel the freedom of being an unbound spirit in God's world
of color and creation.
