I seek liberation from fear and anxiety. Painting helps me do that. I worry less about what I’m painting and more about the color and the feel behind it. The subject might be a friend over and over again, in different clothes and rooms but what I get to explore is something within myself, hopefully something that can be unlocked or let go of. Sometimes if the music is right and the paintbrush is smooth I can even fly.
I hope my own release from forces that have sought to pull me down - and that art has helped bend back, helped pull the end of the rope towards me in the tug of war to win balance - can be a balm or a beauty to another person.
I’m interested in: nature, religion, movement, color, stillness, pain & glory. I live in Northern Kentucky with my girlfriend, Haley, and our dogs, Kona and Sophia.
