Portrait of the Artist

Portrait of the Artist

As an artist, I have two impulses that struggle to find their expression—an exacting impulse that demands precision and is strengthened through classical training, and an expressive impulse that longs to break free from the confines of rigid perfectionism. When I find the right balance, a work is finished.
