I enjoy nature cuz you know I was raised in cage Grove so in cage Grove now I'm always going hiking going for walks and there's a lot of you know beautiful sceneries of just nature itself and I enjoy it and so I just created these landscape pictures because they were so peaceful to me...

I mainly draw things from the natural World animals Wildlife so a lot of my art coming out of college had to do with nature and the natural world and that's kind of where I found my inspiration for a lot of the themes in my art and how I knew I wanted to kind of work in conservation of some sort...

Billy and I worked really hard curating what we wanted in this exhibition and how it would kind of show our childhood memories and our appreciation for the outdoors while mashing the themes and mission for the Confluence Gallery and the Wildlife Refuge...
