DESIGN PHILOSOPHY
In childhood, I would create vibrant works of art where abstracted figures and forms connected and floated among each other. After going through multiple shifts of dimensions, I have now merged these ideas and feelings into the reality of the physical world.
My use of color is layered continuously and seen throughout every inch of the canvas fibers. Up close and far away give two distinct meanings to each piece for the viewer. Forms disclosed within, appear unexpectedly to the viewer. Colors one would never imagine mating, flow into an essence of desire.
INSPIRATION
I channel my inner and outer Spirit from all that is encompassed within the Universe and the shell of all human life experiences.
Each work is layers of speaking of powerful ancient souls within souls. There is no longer a veil that separates All That Is from who we are in the shell of physical embodiment. I have always used my Ancestors and Spirit Guides to locate and feel the energy of Ancient Life Force. Whether it may be the Sun, Moon, Earth, Wind, or Rain, we are here on an Eternal life mission to break up what is old and stagnant and create sacred harmony and boundless love to all that is present.
For myself, traveling to over 24 countries has created no rules and proves that there is no such thing as time. All that we see and feel is a timeless masterpiece, waiting to be indulged by those searching for a fragment of their future or past. Nothing exists outside the reality of Spirit. In turn, this eternal life has become incorporated into the future life of these canvases.
