Pedestal Pedestrians
Artist Statement
The allure around celebrities has always been intriguing to me. I cannot seem to understand why the image of the celebrity holds so much weight in modern society. Aside from money and fame, what's the difference between a celebrity and your average Joe? Through illustrative multimedia paintings, Pedestal Pedestrians consist of four bodies of work all done on wood panels utilizing the combination of acrylic paint, color pencil, charcoal and ink.

The Toil of Nature and Man
Artist Statement
The permanence and presence of textiles and printmaking throughout history deeply resonate with me as an artist. My work is my way of paying homage to the work of those before me, and to the natural life we have been given on earth.
