Comments:
I try to keep true to my own style. I turn to everyday encounters and objects, to pick what I can to make my own definition of creativity. My work is rendered with stylized drawing that absorbs realism. My subjects are depicted in as straight forward a manner as possible. I think that all objects and forms that we come across in our day to day life have their own individuality. These objects draw my attention and then I render the observed form with its detailing in my own peculiar style. |
