"Chaos and Order" is a perfect example, as all four themes are represented. These elements, more than any others, seem to manifest themselves in my art and, at some level, interpret themselves in terms of the other. I believe that I did not choose my art style or philosophy, but rather that it chose me. The elements or subject matter that dominates my work exists in the natural world as well as in the imagination. I simply add composition, color, and a dash of drama. I feel that if an artist has artistic integrity (a quality that I hope to possess someday), that trait will manifest itself in their art. This is ultimately what gives a particular piece its appeal and impact; signature art is born of truth. When I create a piece, I try to suggest, rather than interpret subject matter, leaving space. Because I think that the greatest gift an artist can give is to create art that invites discussion, alternate interpretation, and opinion. As an artist, and more importantly as a human being, this speaks to my belief that we are all born unique, but unfortunately most of us die copies.
