In this series of work I depict the demonic creatures and scenarios that exist in my mind. These works are an escape from the submissive role I live in a mundane reality. They embrace and add humor to the ugliness of human nature and the pointlessness of life. They are a culmination of an over-saturation of heavy metal music and cartoons throughout my life.
The majority of my work is made up of etchings and zines. Through the process of etching I become more attentive to problem solving and craft in individual pieces. It allows me to focus on details and composition of specific scenes whereas zines function as an exercise to help me work loosely and still be productive. The zines also work as a great tool to develop narratives and disseminate ideas to a wider audience. Both of the media help to push the other forward and develop a cohesive style.
