                    I use natural forms as a metaphor
                    for human experience. Nature forms
                    and transforms through external and
                    internal stimuli much like the way human
                    personality traits and emotional identity
                    form through our daily encounters with
                    hardship and blessing.

                    Similar to the way nature needs external
                    stimuli and internal reactions to transform
                    into its intended final form, humans also
                    need this action to reaction process
                    to form beliefs, values, character, and
                    identity. We often will remember things
                    differently than they actually happened.


                    Most of my work addresses a personal
                    experience and the struggle I have with
                    what actually occurred.
