Artist Statement:
since the day i picked up a
pencil, i was drawn in. the
feel of the lead against
paper, being able to create
worlds from nothingness, it
was a very powerful feeling.
mostly self-taught, i've
gathered books on other
artists and copied their
works. when i was younger, i
based my success on how
accurate i could portray their
works. as i grew older, i
realized success lay in my
finding my own way, my own
style. forever my worst
critic, i feel i have yet to
succeed. but rather than
expressing my humility, you be
the judge.
within these galleries, you
will find the culmination of
many hours / weeks / years of
work. whether influenced by
gaugin, nagel, rivera or
another artist i've come
across in my journey, this is
the product of my study. i
welcome any comments or
complaints....
