I don't think I'll ever tire of the opportunities to explore through art. I experience art in everything, from the stuff we create as human beings to everything else we have surrounding us in this vast universe. What is perhaps most intriguing to me though is the process of creation, be it my own or that of others. Being witness to what comes from nothing as well as the process itself. Exploring my own actions, the results, and wondering where it comes from.. what is it made from.. what are the influences.. why did I choose the way I did in the actions, materials, and whether to say it's complete or not?

Why do I prefer certain features/characteristics in anything I employ or the results? I study colors, textures, light, spaces, weight, volume, speed, etc.. and how all these can come into play when I bring things together and/or take them apart. Why am I curious, and why do I have preferences. Is it a combination of experiences, genetic coding, knowledge, exposure, or a lack of any or all of those things that keeps me wanting more.

I often think once I've created something that really excites me that somehow that is a piece of the answer. Sometimes in that moment it can feel like enough. The reward is there. It's like nothing I've witnessed/experienced before. It's like a new piece of music that really resonates with me...I just want to immerse myself in it over and over in that moment knowing that I will eventually want more, something new, something that perhaps builds on that which I and/or others have created.

Art keeps me going in the darkest moments and seems to be richer, more filling and rewarding in those times versus when all seems okay or is on the right path. It has helped smooth countless troughs I've had the misfortune of going through. When discovering/consuming the art of others it can be consoling in that it seems to communicate at least some level of recognition, understanding and/or appreciation of relative experiences.

In this pool of life I hope what I consume and in turn create aids our growth. Art is creating. My aim is to contribute to that no matter how small the impact is. If something I have created soothes for just one individual in one moment maybe it's enough. Perhaps that individual can build on what I've done or at minimum keep progressing.

The art I have published via this website is a collection of works that I have created since 2018. As time passes I will continue to add to this with whatever has struck my fancy or that triggered an exploration from me - including retrospective items. What is predominately here currently are digital works/animations as well as photos of physical pieces. My more current focus is in glass work - stained glass, blown glass, lamp working.
