First of all I want to thank you for your interest in my gallery. Over the past ten or so years I have deeply enjoyed producing art on the computer and found a great sense of satisfaction in doing so. In high school, however, I found an interest in computer programming as well. Having moved on to college I found that I really enjoyed working with computers and put my dreams of being a graphic designer on the back burner in order to pursue a career that would pay me back the most for my time and effort. Over the course of the next two years, however, I found myself working long hours and finding a lack of satisfaction and pride in my work. Frustrated and trying to realize my dreams as college quickly moved by, I decided once again to pursue my dreams of being an artist. Having never taken a formal art class, I surprised my professors and peers, but most importantly myself, with my artistic skills and talents, and found that I enjoyed both graphic design and fine art. Having lived in Florence, Italy for a semester and having experienced all that this romantic city had to offer, I have gained a deep respect for the art of the past but look forward to producing art for the future. At this point in my life I can say that I am the most satisfied that I have ever been and, although I have much to learn in my final year of schooling, I feel that I have made the right choices and I hope that my art can reach out to the world and be enjoyed by others.
