Nature is my model, my medium, and my muse.
Through the work I am able to intimately explore and absorb the staggering beauty and exquisite intricacy of the world around me.

I gather the seeds of my inspiration from old volumes of zoology, anatomy, poetry, fashion, and folklore.

I rely heavily on the natural world for my inspiration as well as my raw materials, trying always to draw on these resources with the utmost reverence and respect.
