Artist Statement Art is in the Eye of the Beholder. What is ab·stract art; Noun - Art that does not attempt to represent external, recognizable reality but seeks to achieve its effect using shapes, forms, colors, and... If you take a piece of art and place it in a room it changes the room. Remove that same piece of art the room reverts and when place in a different room it changes that room, but not in the same way as before. Every time you look at art you see something different because it is ever changing and you are changing with the art.
My type of art is developed from within my minds eye and is spoken in color and shape. I attempt to convey, Make (an idea, impression, or feeling) known or understandable to someone. My work should move something in you, it move me in the making of the art. Everyone will see something different in art. It is a strange medium because you may love it of hate it and someone else will get a different feel. If you like a piece of my work and buy it I want you to enjoy it and you will get more from it the longer you own it.
Art can be a great investment in terms of money, it can also be a great investment in enjoyment. Thanks for looking at my work.
