“So, that piece there with the kangal dog on the wood, I did that gold leaf halo behind it to kind of deify them because I really do see them as these holy and special critters. I feel like I need to honor them. They’re just so incredible!”

“I really like welding and metal sculpting because it’s like candy for all of my senses. There’s the sound, the feeling, there’s the physical aspect of it, there’s the creative flow, and it also taps into my more academic background... I love the chemistry of metal.”

“...the art side, the painting side of my art journey, if you want to call it that, started out as kind of a way to de-stress from the PhD… I think me and my undergrad helpers probably measured—I think I counted this out once—probably 10,000 trees over the course of the project.”

Also, I drew a little ad to make a little money at the con because I'm poor, but was told Utah's quid pro quo laws would make this illegal and lost the motivation even though I saw someone else literally doing paintings for people in the hallway. Cute head owned by @seacloudd.bsky.social
