Art is my passion and my most reliable form of communicating my own sense of expression as who I am or was at certain checkpoints in my life is defined by my art. Everyday I continue to challenge myself in not analyzing, but experiencing, the intriguing process of its creation and, therefore, the unveiling of my inner self and perspectives. As of yet, I still do not understand my work, leaving the mystery of my personal discovery and the ultimate drive to creating art: to deepen the soul and release individual reactions to both tangible and philosophical society. Without this drive, I am lost.
