ARTISTS STATEMENT
I think the most important thing about being an artist or creator is to continually develop. I try to build my skill level, as well as learn a little bit more about personality and perspective. I've been taking photographs, making films and composing music for years now, but started to take it seriously about six years ago. Working commercially can sometimes stifle how you truly want to express yourself, especially when you're working on a commissioned project. So I decided to contribute to Ishotmyself to reflect on authenticity. I was curious to see how a photo set would turn out when I'm working to my own brief. As my work continues with Ishotmyself, I want to challenge myself to work on new concepts. Though I've been taking nude photographs for many years, I want to make them more artistic, and I think Ishotmyself will help me achieve that. I can say with confidence that I've never quite worked on a project like this before and I can't wait to see how this stimulates my creativity.
