investigating human-ness
These figure studies of pastel and oil paint explore the human form and how it lives in the world. Learning about human anatomy has provided me with a direct path to exploring the collective human experience. Our flesh and bones unite us, and investigating human-ness leads to the investigation of humanity and empathy, concepts that should never be considered trivial. It is my goal as an artist to find meaning within moments of my human experience, and use art, in its many forms, to investigate it to the best of my ability.
