Artist Statement
I am an artist that simply enjoys the creative process. From a very early age I gravitated towards anything that promoted creativity, from Legos to school art classes. As I got older, I began developing skills, drawing, painting, building, then sought even more, leading to sculpture and simple Lego stop motion, that drew me deeper towards more advanced skills, woodworking, metalworking, and now, Animation.
I fell in love with the process, the culmination of days of work into seconds of the illusion of life, was gratifying to a level greater than I experienced before. Not that I don't like other art forms anymore, but I definitely now have a favorite to pursue into a professional and fulfilling career.
