Curriculum Vitae 2016-08-15T10:56:06-04:00

Objectives

Continuing as an outgoing and passionate surrealist artist, focusing on painting and drawing and combining the two as expressed in all of my current pieces.

I’m looking to evolve my work that expresses my life experiences through past phantasms and dreams of insects that represent my emotions that I couldn’t normally express with words as a child which again continues to lead me to the discovery that the mind, body, and soul and it’s relationship to the physical sense are infinite.

I will pursue to exhibit relationships between the human anatomical experience and their psychological effects and my interpretations as an artist.
