Referencing elements of nature in my work, I strive to evoke a gut reaction from the viewer. I leave the tangible for an alternate reality and perceive the world in a spiritual sense. Natural elements such as tornadoes, major storm systems, and environmental fluctuations have always been a large source of inspiration in my work. I am interested in the natural breakdown of matter and the cycle of birth and death. I’ve been influenced by the rigors and joys of my travels and life experience; a year of personal discovery spent hiking the Pacific Crest Trail and backpacking throughout Southeast Asia as well as my childhood in the fierce, changeable climate of Oklahoma.
