artist statement

my artwork is everything that i do. every thought, glance, kiss, idea, word, breath. art is my lifestyle, and every part of my lifestyle is an act of drawing. i trace my visions with a camera lens. my fingers draw a rhythm on the keys of the midi controller. every step i take walking down the street is in a motion of drawing. i draw the wisdom lines on a woman's face into my notebook. i draw my thoughts with chalk on public sidewalks, and as i walk i draw a song to you with my voice. my work is everywhere whether it is acknowledged or not, even by me.

constantly drawing drives me to be in a continual state of mindfulness, and fuels my sense of awe. my sense of awe, in turn, fuels the depth and intensity of my drawing. this interaction is the life-source of my work, my existence.

my drawings are meditations upon my experiences in waking life and dreams, as well as the experiences and ideas of others. every drawing is a gift which i receive, and give; like breathing.
