Art is expressing a message whether it be through line or color. It is a physical representation of emotion. I create artwork to express my perspective of reality. I graduated from the Savannah College of Art and Design with a Bachelor's of Fine Art degree in Illustration. I enjoy working in various mediums to express different emotions and content, predominately working in pastels and watercolors.
