My work tries to convey a personal narrative.
A portrait can take me up to a week to finish.
Working in pencil allows me to get great detail in my portraits.
The process of doing the portraits are very easy.
The portraits are detailed and texture to bring some movement.
The composition of the portraits are strategically thought out.
The Sandbox in the installation was there to represent childhood.
The sand bottles were based off of my family tradition.
My work explores the ideas of documentation and history.
The more details I have in my portraits represents the connection I have to that particular person.
The backgrounds of the portraits are always thought out.
The sizes of the portraits was decided by the fact that there would be a lot more of them to fill out the space.
The portraits are for the viewer to know who I am.
