Jimi Painting

Art is one of my favorite hobbies. I like creating abstract designs because I find it more interesting than purely realistic works and because realistic art is simply more difficult. I would love to learn how to blend abstract designs with more realistic qualities someday, but for now my art has a more cartoonish quality. I consider MC Escher, Van Gough, Louis Wain, Alex Grey, and Salvador Dali to be my major artistic influences. I also borrow influence from my education and experiences with many different cultures and places. I also enjoy playing guitar, golfing, reading, and going to concerts.
