Artist Statement
I capture the moments between the breaths and the echos of the soul
My creative visions play with your senses and illuminate the human condition as I delve into the uncensored depths of my mind and invite you to catch a glimpse of the other side. As every story has a past, present, and future, I capture segmentations of energetic imagery interacting and breathing through the boundlessness of space and time…the moments between the breaths…the
echos of the soul.
Transmuting my medium through a poetically alchemical process based upon the principles of equivalent exchange, a process I call Acrylic Alchemy, it is my hope that you will completely lose yourself within these labyrinthine experiences, only to discover a new sense of self and emerge reborn. Pain to purpose and essence of energy, I create portals to a safe place, a better
place…my own reality.
