The reason I was drawn to art in the first place is the experimentation of it all. I love pushing past the expected and routine, and finding, learning, experiencing something new. I love the feel of different mediums in my hands, literally interfacing with materials of the world around me in that place where control meets not-control. I love the surprise and troubleshooting that goes along with the process, and the never-quite-knowing how it's going to turn out, even though I'm the one at the helm. I love the challenge of adaptation, and the trust I build in myself to learn from failures. I love watching something I've never seen before take shape: watching my own imagination materialize in three dimensions. Here are some examples of what arises from that process.
