- Statement:
- The paintings are priced based on the success of the piece, my own attachment to it and the size.
I have been painting fairly regularly since 1990. In the beginning I painted to paint because I enjoyed it. I painted inspired ideas from my head with the intentions being simply good art. After a few years of this, this approach and the final artwork lost meaning for me, and it showed. Art competitions calling for original art or murals for new building projects caught my attention. They had a specific goal in mind and typically a few problems to be solved with the final artwork.
This approach of creating for the grander scale rather than the individual brought my creative energy back in. A fairly new influence on my artwork is Physics. Physics as in 3 dimensions of space and 1 of time, not the way your arm bends. This combined with Zen, combined
with creating for the grander/larger perspective I think will inspire a lifetime of work... searching. I still enjoy creating what's in my oddly shaped skull for the individual level, but balancing that with creating on the grander perspective is keeping the creative circle going.
