Artist Statement: In search of inspiration, I am sitting on a rock. There I question my ability, trying to find the truth in myself, as well as my work. I see, but I do not understand. Can I find the truth? I am excited — this is my inspiration. Questions and answers — I have questions to all. These are my dreams, my loneliness, and my peace of mind. I sit and Wonder — with all of this I draw. When I look at my work, I feel like I am living on the edge of life, holding a butterfly net, trying to catch my dreams as they go by — I am a romantic.
