Artist statement
Creating art allows me to have fun and explore my emotions and passions. In the future I will continue to explore myself through my art. I love art and can see myself continuing it for the rest of my life.
When starting a project I look into what I find interesting at the moment. I ask myself , what can I explore or explain? When I find find that thing I sketch out my ideas, as many as I can think of, be it on homework, notes, classwork, or just in my sketchbook. Next I start to create the form, as my art starts to take shape I look into and take out what takes away from my message or the artwork. Then I finish up my piece and experiment.
My work only recently started taking shape. I have and am growing my clay ability's and my ideas. I love to explore stories, most recently Greek mythology. Greek mythology explains nature and names and so many other things. It gives a new perspective. I continue to keep trying new things, new ways of working. I will keep challenging myself to create better work.
