- STATEMENT
- Like most of us, I am trying to better understand what it is to be human,
and for me, creating art is the natural path on this journey of self discovery.
It excites me to translate an idea or emotion onto a physical surface.
Jackson Pollock once said “Because a painting has a life of its own, I try to let it live.”
Through my ongoing creative explorations I am learning a visual language that
is unique to me and one that often reveals new perspectives on the world
and what it means to be alive in it.
