Artist Statement:
"I'm inspired by the humanity hidden within fantasy’s monsters. I strive to reveal the heartstrings that bind us to the fantastical. Though these creatures are larger than life, their struggles mirror our own.
My work invites viewers to see themselves in the mythic, asking: What does it mean to be both terrible and tender? Using detailed graphite drawings glazed with vibrant oils, I transform folklore into mirrors, reflecting the familiar within the strange.
Fantasy, to me, is not escape, but a language that connects us all."
