Artist Statement

My work is more for amusement than anything else. I am not trying to influence anyone's social or political perspectives. When someone looks at my work, I would rather they get a smile out of it. Even if it's just for a second, it's gratifying because it means they relate to something that I'm addressing.
I found that the creative part of being an artist could be fun, but I am more interested in the technical side of it. I have always liked mastering new skills and using that to perfect something I am working on. 
I am in awe of the comedy world, which includes stand up, podcasts, television, and films. I am inspired by the amount of talent and courage it takes for people like Amy Poehler and Mindy Kaling have to make people laugh. They are famous for their hilarious television shows, but there are crews that make that possible. They are my idols, but not because I want to be like them. As an artist, I want to be a part of aiding people like them in order to execute their visions. I would like to be a contributor to something I think is worth making.
Overall, I intend to find myself as an artist so that I can one day be a part of these worlds that has always fascinated me. I hope to create and help to create in the future.
