Thesis (M.F.A., Art & Design) -- University of Idaho, 2017 | If you are truly locked in and are honest with yourself as an artist, you are a vessel in between different levels of information and function simultaneously within the past, present, and future. The past has already happened and holds the experiences and research that has been digested. The present is the moment of physical creation of the work. The finished work will hold some sort of instinctive sense or visual cue of a clairvoyant vision of future experiences and research that will not be known in that present moment upon completion. In the future, new experiences and information will arrive at the point where you become aware in that present moment that what you envisioned in the past was shaping your future. With a commitment to hone and master my creative spark, and Buddhism to raise my awareness and elevate my discipline as an artist; this pattern will continue to develop and ripen, becoming more evolved and clarified throughout my lifetime.
