Process
When I create a piece of art, I start with thinking about what I would like to accomplish and what message I want to send. Each piece comes from different inspirations, whether this be the music I’m listening to, a film just watched, a conversation I have had with a friend, or a place I recently traveled to. The goal is always the same: to create art that I want to see in the world, art that has purpose and art that will still be relevant when I die.
