Artist Statement
Whenever I go somewhere, I try to always take pictures. When taking photos, I always try to find interesting angles or focus. I like to get the camera down low or point the camera up at what people don’t normally see, for a different point of view. I want to capture a picture of a place where you can imagine a fairie living, and to show people what they are missing when they just walk right by without taking the time to look around.
