"We all have a story to tell, a past consisting of a journey of twists and turns that brought us to the very place we stand today. It’s the stories that relate us to one another, finding that common thread and forging an acquaintance into a friendship.
I share my own narrative through my art, inspired by happenings, lyrics and emotions, often creating settings touched with nuances of surrealism. Like with any memory, recalling it exactly as it happened is nearly impossible. And when age and the ticking clock take over, memories soften and curl around the edges. So I hope to pause specific moments in time, as I see them, no matter how mundane or fantastical. To purge restraining emotions, to look for the promise of tomorrow and to reflect on days long gone.
To create images that reflect the human condition."- Marisa S White
