| As a child I explored the isolated beaches near our home in Chiniak on Kodiak Island. I also spent countless hours playing with geometric patterns-- line art that was meticulously drawn and carefully colored. As a teenager I made artwork on computers in virtual 3D space. In high school I took as many art classes I could fit with the pressure of preparing for college all around me. My undergraduate degree is in mechanical engineering-- a rigorous program that left no time for art. I rediscovered my love for clay just over a year ago. Today my artwork reflects the wonderful parts of life life: geometric patterns, Alaskan scenery, the ocean, and engineering. I hope the joy I see in the world is reflected in my artwork. |  |
