让我们一起看看他的一些cosplay照吧，另附就他的艺术大作，我们同他展看的对话：

“I started when I was about 16. The costumes on the other hand were made by hand. Some costumes were made from salvaged materials I found around the house such as table cloths and old t-shirts and the others were made from fabrics I found at a local discount fabric store.”
“当我16岁左右的时候就开始了cos。另一方面，着装都是我手工做的。一些服装是用我在房子周围发现废弃边角料做的，像桌布、旧T，其他的则由当地面料折扣商店的纺织品做的。

“I keep doing it because it keeps me happy and busy. I love learning new techniques and practicing in myself. I am constantly learning and I don’t plan to stop any time soon.”
“我一直做cos，是因为它使我快乐和忙碌。我喜欢学习新技术，自己练习。我不断地学习而且任何时候都不打算停止。”

“It doesn’t matter what Gender, race, or species you are, cosplay will always be for you. So embrace your inner princess and go out and fight those dragons! You’ll be glad you did.”
“无论是什么性别，什么种族，cos永远属于你。所以请拥抱你内心的公主吧，走出去和那些龙战斗去吧！你会发现你会因为自己的所作所为而感到由衷的高兴。”
