BEHIND THE SCENES
Geometry
I naturally put things even organic matter into lines and shapes. Geometry is a language that harmonizes with my senses.
Duality
I don’t see oppositions as a polarity or antagonistic. I see it as a construct to a universal balance that sometimes defies our emotional approach and reframes our rationality or logic. It becomes a simplicity in the collective, but is truly our complexity as individuals. This is where duality is quite psychologically in depth and its communication can be multi-dimensional. In art, complexity is my simplicity.
Concept
I see everything from a design perspective, not because I studied it; but rather as an instictual approach to visualization and execution. Like all things, I am forever a student.

Color
It goes into my other senses.

Perspective, Gradient & Geometry
Perspective is always technically difficult both in geometry and in painting.
Gradients is really fun and I actually love the New York Graffiti artists for that. My mentor who is also a writer grew up with the 70s 80s crew really made me not feel like a weirdo with colors. It was nice to say oh that Subway orange and this sienna glow of NYU and I could make palettes of the sensations of people, places, and history.
Geometry is an ancient language. Languages evolve. Geometry tends to be more stable. A hexagon is still a hexagon.

There’s humanity in there.

Works on Paper
There is an importance of it being only 100. This makes it also very challenging within myself to really disect and spend times on something that technically is one of the faster processes in art, but in its own juxtaposition takes the longest. The paper itself is such a huge element.
I lean. You lean.
This philosophy I use when I work in partnership. If you suffer, I suffer with you.
There is deep empathy, respect.
