I want my painting to come instantly and immediately, so that in end, there is no idea to be interpreted, rather a thing to be experienced…

              I’ve always found the most interesting art tauntingly coquettish:  evasive and misleading yet beckoning and alluring; secretive and shifty yet alarmingly aggressive and extroverted…  It points to itself yet holds a mirror on to you; invites yet shuns you off; captivates, mystifies, aborts and repels you.  It is something onto itself born of reflections, projections, disciplined work, incidents, and coincidences.

             I aim to create such creatures when in my labyrinth, my dungeon, my laboratory – when inching along through the deep recesses of my mind, upon the operating table grinding the elixir stone.  Like the politician and the priest I intend to touch people with my work, like the voice in the desert I shout.

            As an individual I strive wholeheartedly to evolve consciously and spiritually, and in my work I set out to capture symbolic images that crystallize that yearning, I set out to capture images of the celebration, the struggle, the conquering, and the possibility.

            To me the creative act is a thing of magic, of tapping into the non-ordinary; sensing, and absorbing, then working your way out of scientifically, in end remaining with the impression.  To me Art is Alchemy.

At its best, my work comes inexplicably and without method.

 Art calls me to flow along its journey, to follow its course spontaneity, and to relinquish to it with a sense of commitment and abandon…
