I am from the small community of Weldon, Louisiana and am a graduate Louisiana Tech University. I grew up with a love of art especially with a dark twist. I do not know what exactly inspired me to enjoy such things but all my life I have found beauty in the unpleasant. My mother went to school to become an interior designer and she has become an influence for my love of particular placement. I enjoy creating still lifes. They give me time to be by myself; I seem to work better that way.
