I love traditional art. I like to paint, acrylic or watercolor, and india ink [if you consider that painting rather than drawing.] I also like to draw, charcoal and pencil, depending on the subject matter. I enjoy the expressiveness of traditional art. Although it was a struggle to make my own, I am quite fond of the artist book-making process and the collection of them as whole. They grow on you, that's for sure.

My skillset for digital art lies mostly in Adobe Photoshop, with occasional dabbling in Lightroom, Illustrator, and Flash. I really enjoy writing poetry.

My work has to have meaning to it or I won't even like it myself. I tend to work toward the "ideal," meaning my goal is to inspire people to change, or pick up high-value ideologies. I want the world to be a better place, because I know people are good!

I love art, and I love the human race. Combining the two is a passion for me, and I will never hesitate if someone calls me naive or idealistic.
