Art Prize, Grand Rapids MI - 2023 Entry
TAIL WIND!
The first time I folded an origami dog in my studio, I realized the potential of the stories I could tell. While I would classify my paintings as still lifes, they are anything but still. Some authors know what their stories are going to be before they begin writing, I find that my stories fall into place as they unfold. As such, the viewer can expect to experience my origami paintings as vivacious stories that will continue to unfurl throughout the years. My creations are meant to be full of whimsy and joy. They inspire my imagination and I hope they do for the viewer as well.
