American Portrait
​ 
I wanted to create a portrait of my father in a nontraditional way by drawing tools from his garage, some which he’s had over 25 years, each carrying their own history. I remember helping him with construction jobs every summer break in the Texas heat. As I got older, my appreciation grew for the sacrifices my parents made to provide a better future. Glancing at the current political climate of the United States and how the word American seems to have different meanings, I chose to use distressed tools and old structures as a representation of time. Tangible reminders of what our ancestors have sacrificed to give us a better future and to continue in the path to leave, America, a better place for generations to come.”
