a little publicity

I just got word that Gen Art Pulse did a little piece about the upcoming show and there's a little blurb about me and they even included "Finger Bone". She's not for sale in this particular show but the other pieces are similar in feeling.

Just to air a little insecure nonsense:
I'm pleased they included me in the piece but I think I'm a little self-conscious about the "Tim Burton" comparrison. I feel like my style has largely been in flux lately as I try to grow as an artist and experiment with subject matter and style. I'm pretty hard on myself when it comes to my own work even though I form attachments with everything I make. I can't help but fear being considered part of a "trend" and my work not experienced individually. I also don't want that fear to influence my creative process. I also don't want to come off as pretentious but sometimes you can't help it when talking about art. This becomes a bit of a loop.

I guess this is what people who make shit go through.

Regardless, I am thankful to be recognized and mentioned by such a great internet art resource and I'm excited about the show. Please come if you're in the area. I'll be around so be sure to say hi!
