Two Skeletons

From the time I was little I loved drawing and taking photos on my mother’s phone. Once I got into high school, I had explored both sides of these different art styles, but it was not until I got into a graphic design class freshman year that I started to merge the two arts together. I began experimenting with self portraiture and drawing over my pictures in photoshop. This made me slowly develop my own personal style that I continue to pursue and change. I enjoy the process of changing the images with my drawings and seeing how the mood of the piece changes depending on the images around them. All of this led to this piece that I made during a time when death was really on my mind. This piece in some ways is my acceptance of death and how it can change my views on the world. In this image I confront death and my own relationship with it.

Creativity means to me the exploration of the mind and the world around you. Through creativity I can get my emotions out in a creative way and share them in the physical world.
