Announcement    Nature has always been a huge inspiration for my art. My armored faeries are all inspired by real insects that live on this planet. I am awestruck by the ways in which creatures have evolved to fill a need or solve a problem; so, when it comes to looking at insects for inspiration, the weirder, the better. The more I study nature, the luckier I feel to live on such a magical planet.

My choice in how I design my armor also stems from my disappointment in how female warriors are often depicted in many video games and films. My goal in creating these warriors is to show that girls can be strong and beautiful, without being objectified.
