Artist Statement
I am fascinated by the magic and duality of human journey. Art is wand or baton I use to provoke a seed of inspiration toward hope. Through the use of vivid imagery fused with magic and reality, I expose or juxtapose a particular event, emotion, or cause in the human continuum. My studio is a laboratory where I experiment with art supplies and life stuff in the form of social commentary. With the use of paint, charcoal, pen and ink, and found objects, I seek to invoke revelation, healing, and ultimately revolution within the audience. My goal is to put art where it is most effective.
I am an artist of the people. My goal is to put art back in the hands and lives of everyday people. Everyone deserves the beauty and culture that art can bring to a community. Public art speaks to this. In that I feel that public art is the highest calling.
