"Watersound II" Painting

An architect sculpts space to create a beautiful balance of light and shadow. An artist takes that framework and drapes it in memories and emotions, transforming space into pure magic. To me, art is a humbling – a stripping away of everything I think I know in an effort to rediscover what I’ve lost. It’s tearing things down to their foundations, looking out beyond the edge, and recognizing the unbound, insane beauty that flows eternally around us all. In the meditation of a painting, something transcends. In a moment of pure stillness or an unchecked brushstroke, I catch a glimpse of it – like a breath of magic from another world. It’s intoxicating, fleeting, and highly addictive because a glimpse is never enough. So each new work becomes an invitation to dance with the divine… if only for another moment in time.
