Artist's Statement:
I was born in Walklens
Glen, New York, on December 7, 1974. I am a self- taught Californian
artist. Ever since I was a child I've been interested in creating things
with my hands. During My 3rd year in college I decided to pursue Art
as my life's work. Since then I've worked in many styles and have enjoyed
the perpetual learning process of assimilating new materials. I began
formulating my own style by closing out all external influences. Looking
only to my own subconscious as a place of inspiration. I found it necessary
to allow my sleeping mind to have control over my creations. In fact
many of my earlier pieces have been created while dreaming. Some of
which did not make themselves clear even to me until completion. Now
I embrace all external influences into the subconscious, allowing these
things to manifest in my work abstractly. It can't be forced. It must
be allowed to happen. You are just a necessary part in the equation.
I find this to be essential in the processing of any of my works. I
believe that all people are creative but have not yet fully exercised
the area of their minds that control such things. I believe that it
is our collective responsibility, as artists, to further humanity in
this re-learning process. Everything is a medium. All things are art.
