Eternal Embrace, 2023 Print

As a seasoned illustration artist, and for the past two decades, I have been helping people bring their creative ideas to life through commissioned art and selling artwork online. I am deeply passionate about art and believe it has the power to transform lives and impact the world in a positive way. I use a variety of mediums in my artwork, including ink, watercolor, acrylic, color pencils, and mechanical pencils. I typically work with 8x10 and 11x17 paper, although I am always experimenting with new materials and techniques to push the boundaries of my craft. My inspiration comes from a wide range of sources, including animals, angels, music, statues, anime, books, Pinterest, ancient African history, religion, and masonry. I am fascinated by the way these different influences can be combined and reinterpreted to create something entirely new and unique. I feel most creative in environments that are crisp, fresh, quiet, blue, gray, cool, bright, with strong shadows. These are the spaces where I feel most comfortable, where time passes freely, and where I can get lost in the zone. I am drawn to environments that produce a feeling of struggle and those that are easy to find. Life and death exist at the same time, and eternity is always present. For me, art is life. It is an experiment, a journey of self-discovery that allows me to explore the world around me in new and exciting ways. Art has masonic roots in the ideological influence of visual art, architecture, and performing arts. I see logic as the art of thinking, and every interpretation of a work of art implies a qualitative judgment that is formulated by criticism.
