My Bio
What is an image? Is it a visual representation of an idea, a written description conjured in the dark recesses of ones mind?
I am exploring the creation of an image by pairing visual and written elements.
As a painter the use of painter-linear elements is fundamental to my work; I believe in the process of applying paint to canvas to create a visual narrative based on reality but not grounded in it. The unifying element of my paintings is the use of spray-paint. I use spray-paint because of the juxtaposition in creating organic elements through an inorganic means. I also wish to develop the political nature of my work by incorporating the social constructs surrounding spray-paint as a commentary on our current environmental policies
As a creative writer I rely on text to create a narrative. I use word, rhythm, meter, and other poetic devices to develop my voice. My poetry explores the political nature of individualism vs. societal constructs, as well as the destruction of nature.

Its been a bit since my last update, not much has changed, still producing works, selling a few here and there.
I have started to work with glass and spray paint, as well as starting to pair my poems with paintings. I'm looking to publish a book of poems and paintings within the next few months, I'll put up some pages when I get them together.

It's been a bit. I have been busy with studies but was able to upload some photos and recent paintings. I plan on producing more more within the next few months, so keep an eye out for more to come.

Uploaded my dip-tic.
Starting work on some new art. I hope to get 20-30 pieces done by the end of July so I can go to some art fairs and try to sell them.

Hit your profile on a random search, I'm liking what I'm seeing so far. It's too bad not much has been done lately, I would be interested in seeing more.
Forgive me if I seem imposing (probably the wrong word for this situation), as my disposition has slightly changed, myself being near what could be an extraordinary discovery.
