“My work seeks to create a moment that encompasses the body and the mind to communicate the essence of a feeling.”
I want to create art that turns the surreal into the real.
Typical Anatomy | Mixed Media
$350
A short story in the style of vintage anatomical illustration.
I am drawn to that which is strange and liminal but oddly familiar.
Altar of Cups | Animation
$320
A virtual altar representing the element of water, drawing from western and eastern esoteric symbolism.
My work seeks to create a moment that encompasses the body and the mind to communicate the essence of a feeling.

Visualization of emotion is what fuels my inspiration.

Bodies no. 1: External | Animation
$300
The first in a series focusing on the body. A composite of natural elements, soft and hard and in-between, drawing from our surrounding environments. A state of peace.
The second in a series focusing on the body. Centers on the senses and bone structure. A prison.

Bodies no. 2: Internal | Animation
$300
I need to express myself artistically in order to handle the ups and downs I have…
These are works of dreams that I have been nesting since my last frenzy. I hope to reach resonance with others.

Frequently I simply do not have the energy to get out of bed.

Bodies no. 3: Construct | Animation

Sometimes I find that energy. The dams break and the work comes flooding out.

These are works of dreams that I have been nesting since my last frenzy. I hope to reach resonance with others.

This is a glimpse of what lives inside my head. Perhaps you’ve seen it before yourself.
