Generally, I do not have a tangible drive to create. It is an obsession I have come to terms with. I do feel as though this world has become a place of lost magic. In my art, I strive to show glimpses into the forgotten, into the myths and legends that I know intrinsically must be based on some reality. On my journey, I have met many who feel the same... I prefer that any reading into any individual piece is reserved for any individual person. What my creations invoke or do not is entirely up to you. I like to experiment with my style and mediums to keep things fresh and new. My work is my play. I find tiny things with great detail especially inspiring~ nature is the most beautiful thing to me. If I am not brainstorming or creating, I am certainly out in my garden or cooking something tasty.

Artists i love: Aubrey Beardsley, Edward Gorey (R.I.P.), Edgar Allen Poe, Dr. Seuss, Tim Burton, Clive Barker, Brom, The King Himself (Stephen : }), Type O Negative, Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson, Luis Royo, Neil Gaiman, John Bolton, and Brent Klockars among many many others...
