ABOUT
EDUCATION

I explore an idea through research, sketching, and finally completing the artwork construction.

Inspirations are never-ending, but often include:
Tailored sentences and etymology
Fashion and architecture
Urban landscape and narrative textiles
Color relationships, shapes, suggestive line
Music and spatial arrangement
Masks and sociology
Dance and allegory
Psychology and interaction

When others approach the artwork, I hope they will have a similar joy for the layers of art experience, whether drawing from mental analogy or whimsical visual interpretation.
