From a young age I was able to see images in my head of an abstract form of what I was looking at.
I tried my best to capture them with drawings and small acrylic paintings, and whatever tools were
available. Curiosity turned into obsession, which turned into a complete art studio, which turned into
exhibiting my work today.

Art to me is everything. I see it wherever I go. It is the people you surround yourself with, the emotions you
experience,and the air you breath. Its just an outlet that im addicted to. Like anything you do daily, its hard work.
I enjoy the work, the feeling you get when it pays off with your own little masterpiece is a high money cant buy.
I enjoy entertaining others with my art. Without the viewer, there would be no point really.

Pulling the viewer into my painting is my goal, if just for a few seconds to be drifting into the world that lays
before them in oil. I am a big history buff, and I paint alot of historic figures with a modern twist. I also feel
that its important that kids that see my work can get a little history lesson here and there. I paint alot of work
related to the anatomy of the human body and form, which comes from my early attraction to leonardo da vinci's
work in the late 1500's. Among other influences including the brilliance of michelangelo, the rawness of Picasso,
and the mindset of salvador dali. Egyptian and african artwork are imbedded deep into most of my work. The simple
lines and patterns used to create bold symbols are images I obsessed over as a child. From the engraved tomb of
Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings, to Southern Africa’s oldest known clay figures dated as far back as 600 A.D,
makes me feel apart of a family of artists, who spoke for there generation, and generations to come.
It's a combination of the impossible and road to making it possible that triggers my
drive to create works of art. Plus among those little roads and paths that lead to the possible, branch off into
whole new paintings of themselves. It's an endless cycle, balanced by my own strive and curiosity. It's a treasure
to me to be able to communicate and share visually my work with the whole world, thanks to the internet. What a
great and powerful tool to inspire artists such as myself to keep working, and enrich the lives and imagination's
of others. If I contribute in my own way to record my outlook on this world through my talents, I feel im doing a
job well done and respected.
