Art is an escape during the day, whether its doodling in class, dancing, painting on canvas, carving or creating, I am constantly using my mind, hands, and body to create art. For me, I can see art in anything. Pieces of art can come in many different shapes and sizes. My art is inspired from the world around me. My creations are reflections of shapes, textures, and colors that can be seen in the natural beauty of the original model. My purpose is to use values and different pencil marks or brush strokes to create a variety of textures. I enjoy using a those textures to show that the world is not one big brush stroke. The world, instead, is made from intricate emotions, memories, movements, shapes, colors, sounds, feelings, and details that I try to embrace and portray through what I call art.
