Artistic Development and Education
The majority of my development as an artist has been self-taught through experimentation and curiosity throughout my life. I am grateful for both the special mentorship relationship and privilege of the academic education opportunities that I have received, which have also significantly contributed to my artistic and personal enrichment.
