Subject: Re: PUPT: background/training


Personally I am just starting my college career so in a way I have no background. However
for as long as I have been able to hold a crayon, I've been an artist. More recently,
based on the work that I've done through high school I have come to identify my self as an
illustrator. My influences are varied but I relate greatly to the work of Japanese ukiyo-e
artists like Utamaro and Yoshitoshi, Comic artists like David Mack and Sam Keith and The
surrealist movement. Most of my work is based on emotions and communication. To me
puppetry is an extension of illustration, bringing the image further with the third
dimension and movement and sound.
