Art is about challenging the status quo, experimenting, and applying them in new ways. As Milton Avery said, "To paint, one must go by the way one does not know. Art is like turning corners; one never knows what's around the corner until one has made the turn." I enjoy working with a camera and combining images in a collage or painting.
Ironically, I started my art career with cut-and-paste collages when I was fourteen. Robert Rauchenberg was the most significant influence in my life. I used his technique for lifting images with solvent and a press. Today digital painting is the medium of choice. The enclosed work titled V8 was created in Procreate and Photoshop. Collage is still a fun and expressive way for me to express myself, and as digital technology expands I will continues to try new and develop new things. If you are interested in having a inkjet chromium 17x22 print, please contact me via Twitter or Instagram and I will make arrangements to send you one.
