Color is a language...
I approach painting as a visual form of music. I see color as the notes, the way the colors
mix and blend as the harmony and the brushstrokes as the rhythm.
Using color and brushstrokes to invent a language of my own, I try to connect with people in ways that can't be done with words or images. I think the best way to view my work is not to ask "what is it?", but to ask yourself... how does it make you feel?
I hold the brush, God moves my hand...
I paint purely by instinct. The best way I can explain what I do is that it's like improvising jazz but instead of melody and harmony, I'm using color and brushstrokes.
I believe that art should reach deep within us to touch our heart and soul, To evoke memories and emotions. To remind us of our hopes and dreams. To reflect our fears.
abstract realsim. If anything, I hope my work inspires you to look within yourself, to see the possibilities that exist within all of us and to make the most of those possibilities, no matter what your possibilities might be.
