I have a passion for aviation. One of my favorite things to do is to take photos of airplanes on the move. I feel like being able to combine my passion for aviation with my passion for photography is extraordinarily fascinating. When I take my photographs or draw, I love to keep my viewers guessing. I want them to take time to think about what I was thinking about when I made this—why it is that I placed the object this way. When I first started making art, I told myself I wanted to be different. I didn’t want to copy others. I figured I would come up with my own plan so that my photographs stand out and pop! As far as inspiration, there's no specific person who’s inspired me, except maybe my art teachers. I just find photography itself really cool, which is one of the reasons why I started digging deeper into it.Seek Discomfort, 2020The Take, 2020
