Artist Statement: I chose these pictures to represent who I am and what I love. I chose beach pictures, a football, my soccer cleats, two of my favorite vinyl albums, and the Portland skyline. All of these pictures represent me in a different light. The beach pictures represent where I came from, the sunny state down south, California. I chose the football and soccer cleats because it shows my love for both of those sports. I chose the Tupac and Dr. Dre albums that I own because music in general is such a big part of my life, let alone those two albums. I chose a picture of the Vans shoe logo because I wear the brand often, and it is undoubtedly my favorite clothing/shoe brand. Lastly, I chose the Portland city skyline because it shows the I have journeyed from my home state, to a completely new one.
