Dream Journey of The Individual Hero Painting

"The essence of all beautiful art, all great art, is gratitude." Friedrich Nietzsche * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * I am an ardent anarchist. I was born in 1966 in the city of Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic. I received personal instruction from several artists in their own right which helped advance my drafting skill and where art became a part of my identity. I then immersed myself further in an advanced visual arts program in high school supplemented with some brief courses at The Arts Students league in New York City. After this high school period I drew and painted sporadically because I felt I needed room to age and grow as an individual and as an artist; then I could say something with paint, something that was of my own creation. My experiences, artistically and socially, have paved the way to the art I am currently creating.
