Artist Statement: I wanted to create prints that give a very mysterious feel and would draw people in to take a closer look. My pair of prints were inspired by elegant Gothic landscapes. I placed trees and clouds in the background to create an intriguing environment and to add dimension. Finally, I printed in dark colors to add to the prints’ boldness and drama. I hope that these prints can instill imagination and creativity.
