Artist Statement: The work appears in my style of choice: doodling. In my design, I layered hundreds of different images for each ray of the sun. Each ray in turn reflects parts of San Diego and the activities and moments that have made me who I am today. Below the sun, in the depths of the ocean there are currents of doodles that reflect the nature of the ocean and a foundation of growing up in San Diego.
I love everything about San Diego, CA. I love the surf and the sunshine and I try to take advantage of being outside at every opportunity. I love to surf, skate, play volleyball and waterpolo, and play my guitar. When the sun has worn me out, I love to settle down in my room and draw, design, and paint with my cockatiel ’Taco’ who makes sure I don’t screw up! I was fortunate enough to have my great friend Makena introduce me to Sing for Hope and give me the opportunity to be part of this amazing project.
