| Artist Statement |
I am an artist from Los Angeles and I have recently moved to Merced. My medium is currently oil on canvass but I dabble with watercolors and acrylic. As an artist I am trying to understand my communication with the view and myself. I have been on hiatus as a painter for a year now and have been drawing and experimenting with comic zines. I am an emerging artist that paints for the fact of frustration and love. I feel the creative mind and visual image is something to be explored and shared. I am interested in the development and process of collaborative work this is something I have learned is effective in communicating and exposing the voice of a community and the way an individual perceives their community + It is always fun working and sharing ideas with someone else because you can learn so much from others and learn from yourself by teaching or experimenting. I enjoy the idea of nonsense, it sometimes reflects in my work. I like the suggestion that thing don’t always need a complex metaphor or explanation, that things can exist for pure pleasure or idiocy. |
