I enjoy creating works of art because I love how I can capture moments
or images in time. Whether I am taking
pictures of a gorgeous sunset or capturing a still life of reflective bottles
in pencil, there is a beauty to both. Photography is my favorite medium because
I see differently through a lens; the way light is refracted through the glass
or how colors seem even more vibrant than what I see simply with my eyes. One
of my favorite artists is M.C. Escher who creates amazing black and white illustrations
that make me have to look twice because each image is warped or incorporates something
that should be impossible.
I am inspired by my love and desire of traveling because I want to see
places in the world that are both well known and unknown. I would like to
experience the many different cultures and incorporate the variations of art
styles into my own pieces. Water droplets,
cobblestone streets with terraces overhead, modern reflective buildings, or
crumbling ancient ruins; they are all so different, yet each are a part of our
world and have a story to tell. Fire vs. ice, modern vs. vintage, colorful vs.
black and white; most think that you have to choose one or the other but my
favorite part of art, and about life, is that we have so many variations and
opposites that make our countries and cultures unique and interesting.
