The images in my Art are ones that choose me. They haunt me until I give them a place to reside.
There’s a definite formal component to the work. I work out size relationship, inclusion of patterns, compositional structure. This process is very important and helps to ground the images in a way that becomes almost sculptural.
Once started in the studio, the work consumes me. It is problem solving in the most concrete manner. While important to work from the sketches, I allow for changes. Trust in the process is paramount.
I believe in Art & Beauty. Both are necessary to live a fully present life and make the world a better place.
Two quotes inspire me on the nature of beauty:
“Is the beauty of the world less important because of the moral horrors of society?”
From art critic Donald Kuspit:
“Beauty will save the world.”
From Dostoevsky’s novel “The Idiot”:
