About The Artwork

A digital oil painting on canvas depicting the Japanese fairy tale moon princess Kaguya-hime, and her yards of colorful silk kimono and long black flowing locks of hair. Kaguya-hime is the heroine in the traditional Japanese tale "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter" (also known as "The Tale of Princess Kaguya"), who brings her bamboo-cutter father great riches after he finds her as an infant inside a stalk of bamboo. She grows into a great beauty who is pursued by many suitors who vie for her attention, but she rejects them all to return to the moon. The girl had priorities! My painting is based on a very old painting on a vintage scarf passed down to me by my mother, who owned it for decades and is now extremely threadbare. I wanted to find a way to preserve it because it is very dear to me. My painting is much more colorful, I used vibrant aqua blue, purple, green, periwinkle blue, red, yellow, brown and black in my Asian portrait.

My mind lives in a rather strange world of its own, in a state which I tend to refer to as "delightfully twisted." Through my art, which I am vehemently determined to continue to create with as little outside influence as possible, I work to interpret the concepts my mind creates in a moment-by moment barrage of ideas. Though my work manifests itself in many different ways, from the delicate transparency of digital watercolor, to the no-holds-barred starkness of noir photography, to even the fanciful abstract-turned-conceptual properties of my fractal art, the undercurrent that binds them all is my love of surrealism. I prefer the worlds my mind creates to the one in which I live, and though I create all my art to please myself as a rule, nothing thrills me more than when it speaks to someone else as it does me.
