Currently, I am in school for art and design, focusing on graphic design. However, I also enjoy working in more hands on mediums such as drawing, painting, and ceramics. My portfolio consists of a variety of playful, illustrative, and still life-inspired pieces. Typically, I create my work based on observation or whatever strikes my fancy at the moment. I do not typically focus on one specific theme. Creating art allows me to experiment with different styles, colors, and ways of communicating ideas.
My inspiration for creating art stems from my curiosity and desire to experiment with different ideas. Specifically, I find inspiration in the way that ideas can be communicated effectively through design. Currently, I find myself intrigued by the social issues we are facing politically. I find myself wondering how to make visual communication more accessible in these times. One of my biggest inspirations for creating art is Paula Scher. She is a woman behind many of the famous logos and designs we see. Her work in marketing and advertising has always fascinated me. Her bold use of typography and confident style inspire me to make my work impactful, meaningful, and visually striking.

“Art history is a conversation”
Rather than being finished or settled, art history is shaped by scholars, viewers, and changing perspectives over time. Each new interpretation adds to the conversation.
“Art history depends on interpretation.”
This quote highlights how personal and contextual art history is. Instead of relying on fixed rules, art historians interpret works based on culture, time period, and lived experience. That’s what makes discussions about art meaningful instead of right or wrong.
