Artist Statement

Creating my art is my fantasies on paper even if the meaning isn’t fully there. I’m putting my own slice of reality out there for everyone else to see. It’s almost like I’m taking a knife to my brain, cutting a little chunk out and slapping it on some paper. The point isn’t to understand but to merely take it all in and think.  When I’m creating art my goal isn’t to over think or under think. My goal is just to do what ever I think comes next. I let it all run through my hands and out onto whatever’s in front of me. Mistakes are pure gold and can only expand my ideas for the pieces to come.  Everything I make always ends up appealing to my own eyes and mind. I make my art the way I do just for the sake of taking your mind on a trip. I want it to invade your thoughts and eat at you, whether that leaves you guessing at what I may have painted or why I drew a person with seven legs. The meaning is never clear and my thoughts are never on center. I try not to over think what I’m creating. Over thinking leads to a constant attempt at perfection and its something I or no one is capable of reaching.  Everything’s a working progress for me and arts become another thing I’m working for, but doing for my own sanity.
