created by me, inspired by you. i am affected by all things in my life and they shape me in ways that i love as well as ways that i hate. these things, good and bad, inspire me to create.

there are two important influences that have cultivated my spirit and helped me become a better artist. my family being one as they gave me encouragement in the form of my first manual camera. the other influence is my friends. my painting became worth looking at only after i observed and learned from a very talented group.

by no means am i technically savvy or a professional in either field. instead i use my creativity and my unique perspective (we all got one) to click, draw and paint. i do it for fun, i do it as an outlet.

and i thank anyone that has made me laugh, feel hurt, given me advice, embraced my craziness, etc, etc. thank you for inspiring me.
