Artist statement
I often find myself doing things that are 'productive' only later to realize that I was not aware of the meaningful, little things in my life. Time flies and I lose myself in a daily cycle of numbing, pushing forward and getting more and more done. I'm hungry for instant gratification while the world around me is constantly changing but I'm never fully present to enjoy the now. I try to please others because I want them to be touched by my work but I forget that I create because I need to express myself and it's the only way to let my voice be heard. I'm determined to fight it as the love for making art keeps me from quilting.
