Having been a musical creative most of my life, I only recently turned to the visual arts as a means of expressing the intangible, fleeting, emotions of the contrasts contained in the world around me. Both with the camera, and the canvas, I capture that which bursts forth from within, in that moment, and within that space.
Working in acrylics, and using whatever tools, and mediums I find at hand to express the themes of confusion, disconnection, anger, and joy, I attack each piece with fervor. More often than not, my works are inspired by the rhythm and drive of the music I'm listening to at the time.
What my work expresses to the viewer is completely up to that individual. I do not wish to tell anyone what they should see.
