(CASE STUDIES)

Artist case studies are where I pause and look closely at the artists who shift something in me.

They are artists whose work, techniques, and attitude toward practice actively influence how I think, how I make, and how I persist.

These case studies are part reflection, part research, and part dialogue. They remind me that art is not made in isolation. It is shaped through exchange, through influence, through looking carefully at the work of others and asking questions. They offer depth. And depth is what I am always seeking.
