Artist Statement

I am an artist. I create art for about 17 different reasons and each reason is born from the same place…because I don’t know how not to create it. Every object is an art supply or tool and every surface is a canvas. Current favorites include duct tape, VHS/cassette tapes, hardware and discarded game pieces. Upcycling unused items into art fascinates me, I am easily amused for hours with a few cans of spray paint, and I believe in fairies so over the years, I’ve created an entire world of them 

I have found that art has no boundaries. There are very few rules here and the ones that remain have become optional, which allows for freedom. Freedom to create and express. Freedom to imagine the impossible and the freedom to know that it is only impossible until it happens. This is the only place in the universe where triangle pegs fit perfectly into round holes. 

I am an artist. A street artist. This is the place that I want to live forever. To celebrate and cry, to think and breathe. To just be. 

Thank you for visiting my world…
