I create mixed media pieces that combine my photography with reclaimed wood, using a specialized transfer process to embed my images directly into the surface.
Where do you find inspiration?I draw inspiration from my life experiences, traveling, and the diverse jobs I’ve taken on around the world. My work is rooted in a passion for woodworking, especially reclaiming aged wood and giving it new life as a medium to showcase my photography.
What would you do with $25,000?If I won the $25,000, I’d build a workshop and art studio for my family—a space to create without limits and bring my kids further into art, giving them the tools and freedom to explore it themselves.
