At the time, I was looking to take a bit of a break from producing art. But I found inspiration and went with it. I had a friend who loved the band ODESZA and thought it would be a rad gift to give her an art piece inspired by their unique logo. I researched the …
This piece had no real rules or inspiration. I just sat down one night with my usual supplies: a ruler, a pencil, a compass, and shape templates. I knew I wanted it to be abstract – because it was clear by this point that that was my style – but I didn’t have any plans …
Inspiration for this piece was really just the interest in satellites and control towers. As I started sketching, I stumbled on the idea of a layout where it was uncertain if ‘contact’ was being made from the ground or from the sky. As I keep progressing with the piece, I figured out the dimensional aspect …
The 1st installment in my Buddha series. Inspiration for this piece was based on my interest in alchemy, metaphysics, and Buddha. I was meditating at my coffee table one night. I have a small Buddha statue which holds a candle. The way I was sitting at the coffee table, gave it a unique perspective that …
Having made an art show with my previous piece, I dived into this piece feeling very inspired. The formula didn’t change too much with this piece, but I did want to try something different: making it into a diptych which is a layout style I have always been attracted to. Unique style and color schemes …
With this piece, it was time to take a giant step forward. I was intrigued with the design of a pulsar map, as well as the various designs that different waves make (DNA, sound, radio, circuit, etc.). As you can see from the development pictures, the layout was centered around the pulsar map and really …
I came across a photograph that depicted the view from the ground looking up at two skyscrapers. Something about the perspective intrigued me. I crafted a piece where I could work with that same perspective and color it in a way that made it unique to my style. I liked the mirroring effect of the …
With two prior art pieces under my belt at this point, I wanted to take a step forward with layout. I have always been intrigued with crafting a boarder to a piece, so that was a clear intention. I am not sure where the idea for separating out the piece into 3 sections came from, …
After my first piece, PRIMUM, I immediately jumped in to craft a 2nd piece. I wanted it to be more dynamic and bigger. You can see the early stages of my preference for using black up against bright colors, my use of shapes, and attempt at crafting perspective. Once the piece was finished and I …
How do you name your very first original art piece? I did NOT consider myself at artist at the time so ‘naming’ a piece was foreign to me. Since my style was abstract and there was no concept, I figured the name should reflect the fact that it was the very first of something. I …
