Artist Statement

This year for Digital Art I plan on recreating pictures from mythology and fantasy stories, I want to show how I interpret them in my own mind. My main Idea is to use the Seven Deadly Sins as a subject and Pandoras Box.
I am also interested in Greek mythology like Hades Underworld and would like to do work on the Lost City of Atlantis. I want to be able to create these legends as they have stories behind them, and I am fascinated by it. When people view my work I want them to be able to recognise the legend or myth that I have based my piece on, and be able to remember the story behind it, or at least want to find out what this legend means.
I usually get my inspiration for pieces from reading old legends and poems or just while reading a book, while doing this images just pop into my head sometimes they are ones I really want to work on and they just stick in my mind like a photo other times they are gone immediately. Songs are also a big inspiration to me, especially if they are full of meaning or if the lyrics tell a story. I always listen to music while working as it helps me immensely.
