My work consists of charcoal drawings and acrylic paintings showcasing my early steps into surrealism. I explore the relationship between an artist and the use of one of their greatest assets, their hands. This also gives us a sense of freedom as we artists are not limited by our physical capabilities when creating art work. Instead, we gain a sense of freedom when we express ourselves through our creativity. My work shows my metaphorical journey to creative liberation through my charcoal drawings and my paintings.
