 Artist’s Statement

Art Against the World

Balance is gravity’s pull of my feet to the earth and God lifting my heart to the heavens.

Time = Art     

Art = Time

It would have been perfectly fitting to have called it “Art for The World “, but for several reasons I felt it necessary to acknowledge the struggle, the drive, the force behind the love.

I am very aware that I am on this earth for a reason. This ”reason” is my reality. A prophetically proclaimed self-established purpose that I call Art for the World (which is art against the worldly agenda) I often feel that the hardest thing I could do is devote my life force to creating this art but I also feel it’s the only thing to do. Any other path is really not an option.  We are all growing and in this growth we feel the stress. Stress is to grow but we have to let the process happen naturally. Forced growth isn’t growth at all.  The more I learn to accept my mission the closer I become to the source of it all, the river that it pours from.

That which we all seek and at the same time are inseparable from.

My art is about this “River” it’s about the interconnectedness and oneness of all life.  When I start to focus my love and quiet “The World” I can tap into something phenomenal.

Thank you , I love you.
