Artist Statement: Ink has always been my media of choice, as I have chosen ink for my drawings and sketches. Utilizing it to the best of my ability, which allows me to use it for intense shading. However, when it came to color, I had to apply those same skills but expand upon it and create interesting art pieces.

This was the first piece that I’ve done utilizing color. Although I didn’t have the necessary materials at the time, I performed the task to the best of my ability.
