Artist Statement:
When I create my art I try to incorporate a number of things one being sexuality and eroticism, secondly based on whichever personal experience or mental thoughts I may have I do try to gear the piece as my personal visual diary and then third I like to use abstract and surreal back drops to bring the piece together. The human form is a beautiful and unique art in itself, so I find every contour to be exciting and challenging to paint. I do find that the thing us humans can relate to the most is other human experiences, which gives us a connection to everything and other human emotion. I love to work with surreal and abstract pieces, they are in themselves theraputic and bring a peace to the artwork.
