• Artist Statement

  A piece I did experimenting with background art through the use of a reverse silhouette. I had seen silhouettes before, but never one in which the background was blacked out while the foreground contained the set-piece of the art. At this point in time, I was also interested in the expansion of the West, and wanted to make a piece to reflect these interests.

• Creative Statement

  It means telling stories through the lens of a visual medium, educating others about some aspect of the human experience in a unique way.
