Artist Statement:
Sometimes, when I paint, I
just see the image and almost
trace it as if my brain were
projecting it on the canvas.
Sometimes, I have no clue
what's going to happen next
and it's just exciting to
watch something happen while I
humble myself with learning
and screwing up.
Other times I zone out
hypnotically and it's the most
relaxing activity I can
participate in. However, it's
not always the process of
painting itself that's the
most rewarding, it's being
able to bring to life and
share with others the weird
things that float around my
head...
