Artist Statement:
One is not defined simply by
their chosen
craft, or profession; I am not
my art, and
my art is not defined by
whatever labels
the galleries, the
representatives, or the
critics assign it; Whether it
be, Outsider
Art, Surrealism, or
Neo-Expressionism.
Although all of these labels
have at one
point, or another, been
applied to my
work, that is not the sum and
total of my
art.
Likewise, psychotic, lazy,
hermit, and
talented, are all labels and
stereotypes
that have been applied to me
at one time,
or another, throughout my
life. I think of
these labels as degradations
of the true
spirit of myself and my chosen
mode of
expression. Simply put, they
are insulting.
I am not defined by my
suffering, by my
mental, nor by my physical
health , or by
my handicaps or by my
abilities, ;
Therefore, I reject all
labels,
classifications, groupings, or
what- not.
Do not ask me to define
myself, or to
define my work. I simply will
not answer.
Like me, my art is what it is.
And it will
remain so. Unique and true to
its form.
I ask the viewer to do one
thing as they
look upon my ...
