Art has always been a personal form of expression. I have always used it as a tool to understand myself, the people around me. Painting is a place for me to understand my own emotions and explore my thoughts in depth.
My uses for painting are as broad as those emotions. Painting is a language that allows me to speak in ways that are not possible with words.
“Through painting, you find a language that is a unique reflection of who you are. Exploring the symbolism of what you create allows for the discovery of gold, deep within the core of your being. When I look at my paintings, I see them differently as time goes by.
As the years pass, I look at the paint, and it has captured who I was at a specific time. I can feel the emotions that I felt when the painting was produced. I begin to remember my thoughts as I moved the brush along the surface.
In many ways, the painting disappears before me and I see myself. Who I was is captured in a moment, and I acknowledge my past. I can see the path I travelled to find myself here.” –Taken from my book VISION
