dc.descriptionCapstone contains the artist's statement, a list of works, and images of works.
dc.description.abstractThe artist's statement: My work transforms introspection into image by way of intuitive mark making and emotionally driven color choice. By reflecting on memories, emotions, experiences, or simply trying to capture an idea, a sense of presence is developed. This process feels like a ritual at times, pairing music with materials to build an ongoing language of symbols and meaning that stretches across multiple works. The resulting compositions are both personal and idiosyncratic while remaining ambiguous. As a body of work this approach develops into a mythos or collection of concepts that is open to interpretation. In that sense, each drawing is akin to a spell, or moment in a larger narrative. That energy is captured by an alchemical approach to material use. By integrating dry and wet media, mixing colors from dirty containers, and letting textures develop on the page or by impulse, there is a conscious spontaneity. This feeling of electricity coincides with an active reflection on life events and personal questioning, the result is a work that often holds answers for me. My work grows alongside me and is a representation of my growth as a person. As I continue to create, I develop better methods to visualize and make sense of myself and the world around me.
