Artist Statement -



1. To portray ideas in a fresh style, but most important I was Born for Art, I Live for Art and will die for Art.
2. Abstraction in art is the greatest spiritual meditation & an ideal cerebral masturbation.
3. Photography killed representational art some 150 years ago. The computer killed abstract art. Today, thousands abstracts can be created in a day, they may be worth a thousand words but not a penny!


1. Pour peindre des idées dans un style frais, mais plus important je suis né pour l'Art, je vis pour l'art et mourrai pour l'art.
2. L'abstraction dans l'art est la plus grande méditation spirituelle & une masturbation cérébrale idéale.
3. La photographie a tué l'art figuratif il y a quelques 150 années et l'ordinateur a tué l'art abstrait. Aujourd'hui, des milliers d'art abstrait peuvent être créés dans un jour... ils peuvent valoir mille mots mais pas un centime!


1. Para retratar las ideas en un estilo fresco, pero más importantes de que era nacido para Art, vivo para Art y moriré por Art.
2. El carácter abstracto en el arte es la meditación espiritual más grande & una masturbación cerebral ideal.
3. La fotografía acabó con el arte figurativa hace aproximadamente 150 años y la computadora acabó con el arte abstracto. Hoy, miles arte abstracto pueden ser creados un día... pueden ser dignos de un mil palabras pero no un centavos!
