​

I am an illustrator by nature. I enjoy the process and challenge of telling a story. The style of my work may vary but it is usually structured around familiar symbols that I try to reinterpret or reimagine.  I am influenced by the formality of Early Classical art and the dramatic composition of Expressionism. My color work tends to be more stylized and decorative, sometimes borrowing from ancient textile patterns and using a west African color palette.

 

My personal work is essentially about divinity, the duality of man, mortality, and immortality. The themes of personal struggle, personal growth, and personal responsibility are always present.
