against the Art Market.

against telling people what work is art.

against telling people what art to buy.

for Artists to find themselves and be true.

against “creative block”.

against my own doubts.

by creating despite lack of sales or anyone noticing.

by not doing the same thing over and over again.

by following the whims of the creative river that flows around me.

My artistic path is attempting to be one of pure, spontaneous creation, a vibrant rebellion against the sterile, commercially driven machinery of the established art market. It’s a journey taken without intention, where the next stroke or form is an authentic surprise, not a calculated step toward gallery approval. Nor is there any attempt to MAKE or coerce the viewer into seeing or feeling things I want them to.  Let viewers SEE and FEEL what THEY feel, without my forcing it. Art without manipulations of the viewers hearts, minds or eyes. I seek my work not to be defined by movements or art market value,

but by the joy of making the work itself.

I hope that you find what you want in them too.
