Artist Statement
My art explores ways to combine expressive linework, bold colours, geometric shapes, and textures. My favourite things to draw are the faces, women, and organic/botanical forms. I don’t have any specific ‘agenda’, I mostly draw for pleasure, with no clear plan of what to draw, simply following my hand, in an unconscious act of doodling. I draw on the iPad pro, with an Apple Pencil, and sometimes on my Cintiq, depending on the situation. I’ve not done traditional media in awhile, but when I get the chance, my go-to medium is watercolour and ink.
