About Me

I'm a recent graduate of the University of Tennessee, with a BFA in art. I'm working on my portfolio for graduate school, and these are my projects from undergrad. I'm more a conceptualist than an aesthetician- My artwork is less about image, and more about object. I'm leaning towards minimalism and formalism right now, addressing the basic language of visual communication, like line, plane, color and shading, 2d and 3d. But I've addressed everything from humorous 'what if' animal situations to pottery in my journey as an artist. I hope some of these pieces make you laugh, and some of them make you think, but I really worked really hard on them all!

James Frey in Dots


James Frey is the author of the book 'A Million Little Pieces', which sold a zillion copies before it was discovered that Frey made up about half of the facts. Which was important, because its hook was that it was a shocking memoir about his experiences in drugs and rehab.
So I did his portrait in about 1200 dots of acrylic paint, which I squeezed into a grid using a syringe.
This piece is on paper, 16x20".
