Art


I believe that the art which one makes is a portrayal of their personality. My work gives the world a glimpse of my natural quirkiness along with my knack for simplicity. When creating art, I make sure that there is a certain degree of whimsy in it. This whimsical touch unites my body of work. I hope that in viewing my work you see a glimpse of my personality.
