Artist Statement:

The constant use of technology often dwindles our imaginations.  Modern society causes us to spiral into chaos with the mainstream way of life, ignoring the voice of nature. Our environment is in mourning because many have forgotten the old ways of the world. It is time to inspire the world to listen to the Earth once again to reignite our souls and minds.

The realm of the fae is calling! Faeries bring peace and glamour into our dimension. I utilize magic within my artistic soul to summon these creatures so that anyone can experience their charm and be inspired to rediscover nature. 

My work is conjured onto canvas using copious amounts of modeling paste and acrylic paint with multiple layers of various application techniques. Bold colors, metallic hues and intense textures are used to emphasize the vibe of my subjects, inspiring the viewer to experience the essence of these beings. I am perpetually discovering new ways to bring my faeries to life so they can rebuild our imaginations.
