I always had a love for art as a child and ever since I designed and sold my first skateboard at the age of eleven, I knew that creating was going to be my career. Drawing has always been the foundation of my creative processes and has allowed me to pursue my goal in expressing myself and inspiring others.
Growing up with British family members, I was fortunate enough to have many opportunities to travel at a young age and learned to appreciate modern and classical art from all around the world. The culture and customs of European art will always and forever influence what I create and has given me, what I think to be, unique perspectives on aesthetics and techniques that I aim to implement within my work. The obsession of the beauty of the human body has always been the driving force of my inspiration as a canvas with the ability to be so easily understood yet contain millions of unknowable stories in each detail is what I can only define as the highest form of art.
After high school I attended the University of Nevada, Reno and when faced with the decision of choosing a major I chose to study Fine Arts and Business in effort to grow a better understanding of the career I wanted to explore. Through learning the fundamentals of marketing and experimenting with different mediums, I was quickly able to realize that being an artist was my passion and something I wanted to do forever.
Throughout the years I’ve met some amazing people and am thankful for every opportunity that being an artist has given me. This is only the beginning of my creative journey and I thank you for your support and interest in my work.
