My work emphasizes happiness. The fact that my work is influenced by things that bring me joy, is one of the reasons I continue to have passion for the creative process of art. I love the vibrant colors I experiment with, and anything that is centered around them, as I find it to be one of the most important qualities of my pieces. Since I’m more of a formalist, I feel more attracted to different uses of color, texture, pace and lines. I enjoy using these different elements in my pieces. I want the viewer of my work to see the different layers in my art and the different mediums that I’ve worked with so they can see I sometimes like to layer my work. Being able to add layers and textures lets me add more to my artwork instead of having them look leveled. 
When you see all the different layers of colors I use in my pieces you can tell how I was feeling when I made them. Most of my pieces are colorful because I love colors and they make me happy. Being able to see the different colors I can combine in my pieces makes me feel good. When you see my art you may notice that I don't use faces, the reason for that is because I like having the viewer of my work use their imagination. To me, that adds more fun to my artwork!
