ABOUT this work

With every personal project my goal is to always challenge myself creatively and to come up with new ways of making my ideas a reality. In addition to designing on a computer I have a deep passion for creating things with my hands. I also enjoy getting in touch with other artists around the world to collaborate, discuss new techniques and as a result continue to grow my creativity.

MISSION STATEMENT

Live a positive, open-minded life, driven by Empowering Knowledge, Encouraging Relationships and Extreme Creativity.

HISTORY flashback

It is always interesting to see how a person improves in a trait through years of practice and experience. Here I’ve included an archive of my previous personal work showcases as an example of how far I’ve come with my work and a reminder that I can always continue to improve.

The “Big Wall” project

2008 | 3 comments

[ OVERVIEW ]

This piece is actually titled, “Honey, can you make something for that big wall”, which is exactly what I did when my wife put me to the challenge. Having already stepped into the wonderful world of paper crafting, I saw this as an opportunity to take it further. This is a 60”x90” piece, consisting of 28 sheets of foam board, 110 strips of poster board, nearly 200 push pins, 2 cans of spray paint, 2 cans of spray glue, 1 can of tacky glue and 4 days of patience. Additionally, I created my very first time lapse video, to show the entire build in about 3 minutes.
