I am interested in where cultures intersect and how images carry meaning within a society that consumes a vast amount of visual information. My investigation focuses on how I could inform my feelings with my experiences: context, expectations, and perceptions of the subjects I see. My visual vocabularies are varied: colors, textures, washes, and gestures of the human form. In addition to these things, I am drawn to unique patterns, decorations, and jewelry pieces that convey information and beauty.
