Description

'READY FOR THE NEXT STEP' is a Mixed Media Urban art work in which layering and texture play an important role.  
The girl stands on the border between light and dark, inside and outside, past and future. 
The yellow and turquoise accents suggest hope, renewal and movement. 
It is about a moment of making a choice: the title refers to a decisive, perhaps vulnerable moment of change. The girl is literally ready to take the next step - physically, emotionally and symbolically. 
This work is constructed with layers of image transfer, collage texts, acrylic paint, ink, pencil and pastel crayon. 
Together, they tell a story of growth, resilience and the inevitability of the unknown. Mixed media, weathered textures and contrast enhance the layering of this image.

Presentation

Mixed media / collage artist. I assemble original photography, assorted papers, acrylics, oil, charcoal, ink, and pencil in my works. The variety of resources I am able to use has proved indispensable to me. The preparing labor shows through in my collages; layer upon layer of material remains visible in the finished pieces. 

I believe my body of work is characterized by my skill for reinvention. Having always loved the appearance of weathered walls plastered with peeling paint and old posters, I revive this aesthetic with hopefully a keen and professional eye. The creative objective of my work is to “make something beautiful out of dilapidation." 

My tableaus explore the dissonance between old and new materials, intertwined in the most beautiful way possible to create dreamlike and melancholy images.
