Artist Statement

My work seeks to show my 3D skills in different styles from anime to realistic hard
surface objects. In my early years I was inspired by Artists, but also Artifacts, Cultures and Mythological creatures. My goal is to create the best 3D models for weapons in any style in movies and video games. Books, TV shows and Video Games gave me a path to dream my imaginary world, but 3D Modeling has given people a path to connect to that world.
Hard surface has always inspired my work, because I like to 3D model weapons, warrior armor and vehicles, and traveling around Oregon has inspired me with it's beautiful environment. The blue water off Crater Lake inspires me to create a new world with new creatures. Oregon is filled with inspirational locations to visit from the Cascade Mountains, to the Pacific Ocean. In high school I took a class called Lewis & Clark where I learned about their journey through unexplored territory. Their journey inspired me to create a world where people can explore for months just like they did many years ago. Creating new stories, unseen creatures, new landscapes and new architecture, inspired by the history and rich Cultures of Oregon
I hope to create a 3D modeled world that will inspire the next generation of artist and gamers. To create fun and educational games for kids, and recreate that amazing first experience with video games.
