My SVA MFA thesis: Illustration as Visual Essay 2011
- Demons
A Thesis - This thesis became an introspective practice at confronting my insecurities and 'Demons' that come with being a same-sex loving man in a still predominantly heterosexual culture. These works address universal feelings of feeling used, proud, lost, vulnerable, anxious, self-sufficient and independent. Through making these works I became more certain of my own personal pride, of my confidence in being an upstanding example to all people that a Gay Man can be a Great Man. I hope these pieces can have some positive effect on others. Please feel free to share your experiences with me.
