Before I found my voice, I was one hundred percent convinced I was going to be a landscape painter. In the beginning, you create work that you believe people want to see, rather than what you really want to be painting instead. It was a very difficult task for me to overcome the peer pressure of standards surrounding being a professional painter. Landscapes were quite literally something I needed to climb over and seek the right stylistic path on the other side.
Since then, I have found my true Artistic Voice in the work I am currently creating today.
