My artist statement

I create my art not out of inspiration or the desire to express myself: I create it out of the necessity to communicate and feel attached to the world. Because of a form of Autism, I so often feel detached. Art has been more than a recreation and financial medium for me. I use it to communicate. Ever since I was a child I learned that the world I see and experience has been quite different than others, and only through creating images with different media, sculpting and taking photos, can I even start to express and explain the world and how I experience it.

My muse lies mostly in the very world around me, nature, music, movies, TV, my friends, books, and gaming. They are what inspire me the most, giving me thoughts, patterns, visions, and rhythms to continue into my own work, literally acting as a wellspring for my own creativity. Many times I look around to find myself in this enchanted and awestruck world that surrounds me, unveiling its beauty and splendor at every turn. However, when I try to share my findings with others they seem to be lost, unable to see and experience the world as I do. Therefore, I turn to art to communicate that which I experience and see.

The world is a fantastic and enchanted place for me with surprises at each turn and I wish to express that to my public so they might be able to gain some of the joy and wonder that I feel.
