About the Item
Innocence of childhood. Portrait.
About the Artist:
My art is a visual recording of the powerful imagines that occur regularly in life, distilling them down and preserving the elements of energy, excitement, enthusiasm, drama and emotion. Much of my body of work is whimsical in nature, encouraging my viewers to take a step back, and reflect on the little moments that they encounter everyday. Most often created through bright and vibrant application of color, bold shadows and light, my work exudes a sense of energy that transcends its photographic style quality. The subjects I have most recently portrayed are children at the height of their innocence.
