Initially I was a small child who spent a lot of time practicing the flute, then in 6th grade I discovered visual art and that became my main creative outlet. I feel that in music you are recreating someone else's art but with visual arts I'm creating my own work and narrative about the world I live in. Art is open to interpretation based on the viewer's life experiences, but for the artist their personal motivation behind the artwork is why I feel a deep connection to my own work. Only I truly know what the deepest meaning and personal connection to my own work
