I have loved all the arts my entire life and have grown up immersed with many artistic people around me. Music, Dance, Theatre, the literary arts and visual arts are all amazing! I have been fortunate enough to have experienced almost all of these arts. The one that I have not experienced is dance and would love to get my toes wet in that.

As for me, I am looking to share my art with the world at large, and inspire people of all ages to develop their love of, and appreciation for, all things artistic. I have specialized in all forms of art, including traditional art, clay, paper, oils, acrylics, pastels, water colours, ink, pencil, print making (Aquatint) and photography. I am very interested in exploring other multimedia such as rock sculptures and glass art.

The medium I use the most and have developed a niche in is graphite pencils. The focus of my subject matter in my work has always been landscapes and structural elements that has always captivated me. I love sitting down in front of my drawing board and creating an entire world straight from my mind. I personally like to describe that I have an environmental archive library in my brain. When creating a world I instantly choose and draw out a quick sketch of my geography, then instantly a quick mapping of the foundations of a particular structure or structures. The building blocks of this world falls in place and I make sure everything looks perfect, to scale and in proportion. Once the outline of all the environmental and structural elements are in place the choice of details is endless. I then have to choose from a vast selection of structural details (brick work etc) textures, atmospheric conditions and much more to apply to bring my environment to life. This process I use when I want to achieve a lot of detail in a highly detailed rendering. When I don’t have the luxury to create a highly detailed rendering I just render and make it up as I go.

Even since I entered post secondary studies, I have not had the time to draw. In fact the last big rendering project I completed was in January. All my art projects since then have unfortunately been on standstill. I am looking forward to finishing post secondary studies and taking a nice long break. Would love to travel and then finish at least 20 large rendering projects.

I am not crazy when it comes to athletics, but I believe to get out for some fresh air and work a sweat definitely helps the body and mind to stay fresh and think. I don't believe a person can write everything about themselves in one paragraph, neither a book. So if u want to know more about me just ask! :D
