getting to know me...

so you can understand my art, my perspective and the way i portray my ideas, you have to know a little about me :)
i'm in my twenties and split my life between uni, work, art and enjoying my youth.
my art is a reflection of my interests, my loves and my exhaustive array of colours that filter through my mind.
i graduated with a bachelor of creative arts. with my growing love for graffiti and street art over the last four years, i am in the process of writing my honours thesis on this ephemeral and idiosyncratic art form.
i normally produce paintings on ceramic tile, but enjoy acrylics, watercolours and basic pencil pieces. very soon i'm hoping to experiment with aerosol - on canvas and legal walls (ill keep you all posted).
i've got a little private studio, where i escape to and get lost for hours at a time. it's my haven, my world, my form of therapy. unfortunately, sometimes with a busy lifestyle it is hard to take that time to do what you truly enjoy, but it must be a priority, it must become part of the daily/weekly ritual.

art drives me, art excites me, art expresses me.......
