Acknowledgements

Since starting my practice in visual art, I’ve studied with many talented teachers and gotten the chance to join artists groups whose purpose is the support and growth of their members, in addition to critiquing our work.

In the summer of 2018, I attended a master class with artist Michael David. This experience was a turning point in my artistic practice, and I’m maintaining my process by participating in a mentorship program with him.

All these individuals have contributed enormously to the development of my abilities in this medium and to my growth as an artist, and I sincerely thank them.

“The paradox of the human condition
is that one can only become oneself
through the influence of others.”
