Artist Statement:
I once read somewhere that Artists were the guardian angels of humanity. I laughed at this statement. However, out of my naiveté came an epiphany. I realized what these words meant. We as artists, explore, exploit, and expose the essence of all things from the Alpha to the Omega. We employ humanity to impose free will and to look upon the past, present, and the unknown.
