I painted this as an expression of "sin" which I use as a concept from the religious definition as being the separation from God. However in my painting I am demonstrating that same separation as an interdependent relationship with consciousness, not a condemnation or punishment. The collage words all relate to love, both positive and negative feelings about it. The colors are vibrant, individualistic, some textured, and some painted with kinetic properties to look 3-D and moving. And all the content is connected to a center point; the relationship that touches them all like innocence where we all begin, then move and experience life to become what we feel/experience. We think we might be separate from innocence, yet the results of what we become are always present in the innocent state of our consciousness to begin with. I celebrate the diversity of this separation with brilliant hues, evolving exploration of textures, kinetic movement, and expansion from the middle that symbolizes the unending repetition of separation that is also forever connected to its identity as potential.

I tell people that I paint God’s mistake because my art evolves from a paranormal moment I had in 1995 where I was told GOD IS FORGIVEN. I know my slogan is controversial whether you are deeply religious or the opposite such as atheist. Yet my work is not about God, religion or atheism. My art is about the trauma associated with the inescapable relationship that mortality has with innocence. Our birth is not the intent of mortality, but it necessarily creates our personal annihilation. This personal destiny leaves each of us vulnerable to condemning our connection with innocent others who “created us to die” without our permission. Our “error” is our ownership of blame for mortality which is not the power over death; it is our power over cruelty. This inescapable destiny is where my art begins its expression(s). MY ART I use the ancient form of 2-D art to represent TIME as broken yet unfinished and continuing. Like the backside of a hung painting, we are absent before our birth and brought into reality through “others” who have marked our canvas of life already. Once born we see ourselves reflected on the "front side" of life yet witness our previous absence. My art examines this division as the relationship between hope and trust relevant to innocence. The change that each of us becomes by birth is a natural expression from life that we can perceive as a tradition of change. My art celebrates this with my rotation of mediums, vivid colors, energetic brush strokes, narratives of time-conflict, emotional dichotomies, vortex compositions showing our inescapable connection to a fractured reality, rhetorical word-play, and weapons symbolizing our relationship with mortal vulnerability. My “signature” is broken mirrors that capture the WITNESS as part of my art reminding us of our entitlement to mortal choice and innocence.
