My Artistic Journey

From early sketches to finding my own voice.

  1. CHAPTER 01

    Where It Started

    Early childhood

    Before I knew anything about technique, I just loved making things.

  2. CHAPTER 02

    Learning to See

    Early skill-building years

    I started paying more attention to shape, proportion, light, and the details I used to overlook.

  3. CHAPTER 03

    Trying Everything

    Experimentation period

    This was the stage where I wanted to try everything and understand what each material could do.

  4. CHAPTER 04

    Finding My Voice

    Current and recent work

    I began thinking less about simply making something look right and more about what I wanted the work to say.

  5. CHAPTER 05

    Where I'm Going

    Future-growing section

    I'm still figuring out where my art is going, and that is part of what makes creating exciting.
