This is ME

I finally found my niche at the end of 2011. It wasn't simply a photograph or a painting. It was a combination of movement, sculpture, space, print, and lack of it all. I found complete solace in denying all that art school had taught me or not taught me. 

It began with anger at myself, professors and peers for not pushing me harder or giving me accurate critiques. It was in the anger and lack of self esteem as an artist that I found what I enjoy most, literal destruction and the art of rebuilding. 

There is subtle joy in rebuilding, but only after severe devastation of being broken.

I am emerging after years of sweeping every good or bad art project under the rug. My goal is to lay it all out there. Piece by piece, moment by moment, thought by thought.
