| dc.description.abstract | The artist's statement: It has often been said that "a picture is worth a thousand words." Although I do not agree 100% with the statement, I do believe pictures have the power to convey a story. I have found that one image, well made, can add more meaning and emotion to a written piece than words alone. Capturing the essence of a story in an image is one of the main goals of my design work, and I try to incorporate it in a variety of ways. Much of my work emphasizes illustration in both digital and hand-rendered formats. I love the artistry that hand-craftsmanship lends to a piece, so I try to utilize hand-skills in every step of the process. From penmanship to 3D paper sculptures to hand bound pop-up books, I enjoy creating multi-sensory experiences for every viewer. Color is applied liberally, along with crisp line work and clean typographic layouts. Every piece I create draws from history and the present, people I know and people I admire, locations I have visited and lands I hope to one day see. I aim to make what is often viewed as mundane into something eye-catching and inspirational. My hope is that in viewing my work, each person will be able to see old stories in new ways and, perhaps, begin to look at the world around them with slightly different eyes. | |
