STATEMENT FROM THE ARTIST.
Thank you for your interest in my art. I hope you have as much pleasure in viewing my art as I have in producing it. I have been an active artist for over twenty years during which time I have been exhibited and collected internationally, as well as won numerous awards. My work varies in focus, from internal
subjects (images of emotional, psychological, and spiritual 'scapes)
to external subjects (studies of natural phenomenon like lightning
when it strikes, light reflections on the surface of water, and the
flickering of candlelight, for example). My
images strive to make the 'Unseen' seen, make
the
'Invisible'
visible. As an artist I explore my subject matter much as
explorers did when they traveled the world during the Age of
Exploration. After voyaging, they would return home with tales of
adventure and intrigue; carrying with them evidence of new
discoveries from the mundane, to the exotic, to the sublime. My art
are the records of my explorations into the world that I see, think,
and feel. I hope that my work inspires and enriches your life like
an explorer's tale might; perhaps offering you a chance to discover something of
your life, be it mundane, exotic, or sublime.
I
create all of my images spontaneously and intuitively;
oftentimes through mediation and prayer. My art as well as
being a livelihood, is part of my spiritual practice. I believe,
as many artists do, that one's best work tends to come through
you, rather than from you. I feel this way about each piece of
art that I create. They are each gifts from my spiritual
practice of creation... and I am now offering them to you. I am a largely self-taught artist. My professional education and training was in architectural design, for which I had an intensive interest since I was a young child. Born a natural explorer, I have always actively self-taught myself various disciplines that I became drawn to, including: art, architecture, interior design, graphic design, and music composition & production among others. I work in a variety and combination of styles including modern, abstract, impressionist, surreal, expressionist, and abstract expressionist among others. I create in a variety of mediums, including: oil & acrylic paintings, watercolors, oil pastels, monoprints, drawings, sculpture, and digital art. My art has a strong relationship to its mediums. Allowing medium to lead me in my creative process results in images linked less to style, rather more to emotion and the immediacy of that moment when the piece was created. You, in observing my art, become present to that same moment and as a result participate in the creation of the it. |
