Artist Statement, Mural Making Process, and Art Style(s)

My work is based in the earnest exploration of the intricacies of humanity through the lens of my own personal symbolism and various mediums. I embrace paradox like a paper boy to the acknowledgement of the many perspectives through which all beings experience life, the ineffable qualities of existence, and the practice of taking inspired and vulnerable action for the sake of a desired yet uncontrollable result. Through my work, onlookers are invited to explore new or familiar pathways in themselves, to be re-presenced to the warmth of love and innocence, to be encouraged to nurture their relationship with joy and nature, or to dance and be smothered in the sheer groundlessness and mystery of existing. May we all discern when it is right to act, when to embrace a deeper sense of peace and belonging, and when to pause and have a good ol’ fashioned laugh.
