Lives are consumed by work, deadlines, clocks, calendars, lists, by mundane details. We are overwhelmed by stress. With striving for perfection, working to live, and living for work, there is no time to relax. How can we say "no" to obligations that arise? Working instead of sleeping, struggling with negativity, battling to overpower self-destructive thoughts — dreams of success have taken over our lives. There is a heaviness — pressures to be better or the best. We lose ourselves as work escalates out of control.
Art can be an outlet for honest self-expression and therapeutic reflection. We search for equilibrium and strive for balance. My artwork has become a reflection of my work, life, art, and relationships. When viewing my art, try to find yourself — your persona, your confusion, your life's journey, and your emotions. You and I are both there — somewhere.
