My art is very much influenced by the world I see around me and my own thoughts about life and how I perceive the world. I use only the colors I like and the materials I love to work in and manipulate including many found objects. In my life I have taken some long trips that influence my imagination and art and have seen many wondrous sights in the world that have taken my breath away and I love using them as my muse in a way. I want to mirror the natural beauty in the world and show it in my work as best I can.
