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!

Caterpillar Shearing Sheep


18x24" cut construction paper.
started with a fringe piece, then added a free-association image about what a caterpillar would eat if it were very large: after mowing the grass, it would eat the wool off of sheep. Which would tickle the sheep.
Unfortunately this piece no longer exists.

Freeway Print


This is how I feel driving on the freeway next to a semi-truck.
11x14" intaglio print.

Ostriches Riding Zebras series




I thought this was a funny concept.
Started out as the print (11x14" intaglio), then became the cut paper (11x14", with colored pencil), then I redid the composition, which, though dynamic, was somewhat problematic, in the final intaglio print (4x9").
