Artist Statement

From a very early age I fell in love with the written word. Books were my escape, my indulgence, and my therapy.  I remember being in elementary school and being a fanatic of the Junie B. Jones books series. If the title didn’t intrigue you, then the cover art did the job.  As I got older and my reading interest expanded and some of my favorite books were turned into films, it fascinated me how in about an hour or two producers and directors were able to take written work and produce the graphics that told the story. I guess you can say that’s when film became of interest in my life.

As an artist I want my work to convey my perspective without being taken to literal. In the past I’ve used a variety of mediums such as pen, paper, Crayola box, Photoshop, illustrator, iPhone camera, and iMovie. At the end of this production class I want to be able to add other mediums to my production history. I want my work to be its own fashion.  Living in a concrete jungle such as New York has made an impact on me.  It brings to the front line an eclectic variety of art forms. 


Outside of being a bookworm, I have a passion for decorating. I like being able to bring others ideas to light visually.  With the media industry constantly changing, I want to be apart of the change and be able to contribute my ideas and creative eye to others.
