Art, both as the process, and as the
product, is an amazing adventure. I
believe it was searching for me as
much as I was endeavoring to find it.
Our paths crossed in 2001. Never
having had formal training, my
experience with it has been a roller
coaster ride. The ups and downs of
creating have brought forth both
emotional fulfillment and intellectual
challenge.
Being an "untrained" artist, it has been difficult at times to
translate into a visual manifestation my thoughts and
emotions. In the beginning, my paintings were solely about
the "picture." The visual impact. Slowly, however, it has
become my own oration of sorts. At times soliloquy, at times
(hopefully) an engaging discourse, and still at others nothing
but mere rant. I am allowed and compelled to explain the
world as I see it, and put forth declamation about how it should
be. It affords me the rare chance to be the philosopher I think
I would have been in another life.
But most importantly, it is my opportunity give back to a
world that has given so much to me. Life is unique and rare,
and every piece of my work is in part tribute to that one fact
