The conceptual composition for my latest work deals with the language of perception and how it relates to the importance of existing in the moment. I’m interested in the idea that time does not live in the yesterday or the tomorrow, but can only give an account of itself in the now. It holds no record of what we call a good circumstance or a bad situation, but can be seen as an element of change, that presents new opportunities, visions, ideas, and dreams with every second that passes by. I truly believe that every moment is precious and can never be relived again.
My paintings are visual interpretations of events or thoughts in time. They speak of my experiences, or the simple moments that inspire who I am and what I seek to share with the world.
If there is a desire to be different then close your eyes to what has already been done and see with your heart. There you will find your inspiration whether from within or without.
