statement

"With concepts of personal and spiritual growth, my intent is to inspire hope, healing, faith. I benefit from juxtaposing the expected with the unexpected such as live art with book art (artists books), mechanical with organic, old with new."

"Mi intención es expresar inspiración, inculcar esperanza, fe, expresión personal, historia, conciencia y cambio social y me inspiran muchas cosas, empezando con la vida, la muerte, la historia, la naturaleza, la fe, la religión, diferentes culturas, la arquitectura, y obras antiguas".

"Me gusta la yuxtaposición de lo esperado con lo inesperado, mecánico con orgánico, lo antiguo con lo nuevo, cada obra que realizo significa alcanzar un reto, es desprenderme de mi realidad o recordarme de estar presente en el momento, es documentación, o el resolver problemas de una manera creativa"
