With hand motions and big words - I would succinctly describe it as Mythopoeia, which is a word I recently discovered that I feel sums up what I am trying to do quite nicely.
Codex Seraphinus, Marcel Dzama and The Holy Mountain have really effected me Bridget Irish and Carla Azar are people that have personally influenced me.

Egg sandwich?
I surround myself with my unfinished projects and work whenever I can - late nights and mid afternoon are good - I am listening to Deerhunter right now if that helps.
Sit at a table at Evergreen and ask people to fill out surveys.
I work in a lot of different mediums so it varies, but I keep a sketchbook and usually have thought about a piece a great deal before I begin. I usually conjure things in 2d and eventually move them into a sculptural form if they are prevalent enough in my work.
I am a scrounger I use a lot of found materials - But my standby tools would be Chicken wire, acrylic paint, spray paint, clay, fabric, fur paper bags, card-stock, microns, hands, and teeth.
I am really excited about my next show and starting to film some movies with these characters. I have also started to write stories about this world these characters come from, which has helped me understand what I am doing, which is always exciting.
Open a commune with a factory... invite everyone I know, convince them to make me hundreds of costumes, start a synthesizer orchestra, buy an extremely expensive camera, hire a crew, buy a rare animal.... I don't know it would probably ruin me.

The woods and the creative souls.
I love to collaborate and work on interesting projects, send me and email if you could use some help, or if you live in the northwest and want to be in some movies you should contact me as well.
