Although I will be graduating as a member of the Painting Department, I have never identified myself as a painter, rather I draw with every medium I use. I obsess over figuration in everyday experiences. Capturing a feeling, moment, position or scene. The goal of my work is to pull out the physical body with what ever medium I can use. Because of that I am constantly moving back and forth between materials ranging from classic charcoal and graphite to photoshop and illustrator. My physical paintings and drawings always find a new life through the digital collages I create from the photographs I have taken of them. The stories they tell are similar to a time stamp of the moments that I sit down to work. Emotions, history, thoughts, and feelings all captured for observation.
