For the artist
The work is very personal
Going through the creative process, one is never sure where each work will find its end. The artist is never sure if the work will be accepted or understood

The role of the artist is to spur thought
To start a meaningful conversation.
To encourage Imagination

To allow the viewer to create their own unique opinions about the work.
The goal is to show something that they have never seen before.

I was, or, I have always been a dreamer.
Looking for ways to escape
This has lead me to be a late bloomer
Never satisfied with what was presented
Always thinking
There has to be more.

Accused of being different
often feeling alone
Until I one day found my escape
Through art.

Born in Detroit, Michigan
