What is our role and impact in children’s lives: Nature or nurture? It's more complicated than that, as it always is.

Each work consists of 3 layers.

The portrait: each piece starts with a painting of one of my daughters. I tried to use pictures where they were in their natural state and then stylize them appropriately.

The sheet music: original piano compositions that are hand-animated. Each animation is in a varying style to bring out the shape and contour of the piece. I strive for deeper emotions. Not just love, tenderness, sadness but mischievous, anxious, unsure, timid, and bold.

The words: Accept Change, Shape Reality, Listen Well. Ambiguity is a large part of all my work as I want interpretation to be something shared between myself and you, The Audience. Each of these 2 word statements can be taken multiple ways.
