I am a contemporary artist.
Welcome to my art! Although I am musically challenged I have come to a realization that the creation of a painting is much like composing music, which because of its ability to evoke emotional/ psychological reactions, informs and motivates my art. As in music you do your preliminary sketch and build your skeleton. Then you lay your first bed and, letting some Zen-like force take over, begin to lay in form and colors much like dubbing and over-dubbing. To me it’s exactly the same process.
In my paintings the element of chance is the essential building element and next is the gesture. And I could not live or work without color, the most intense and diametrically complementary the better. Adding rhythm, both my own internal and external, brings completion to both the process and to the work.
