I am on a mission to clear the eyes of humanity’s instinctive apathetic pursuit of the norm; while creating unique and inspiring works of art, which challenge the psyche.
I am self-taught, and always strive to absorb and learn from my environment. Then I incorporate the multitude of subject matters into my artwork. I utilize technology to create my art, whether it is generated in a digital form on the computer or I am assembling recycled “spent” technology into a sculpture. My main forms of expression are 3D digital renderings, poetry, music [I am a member Surviving the Odyssey, The Simulation Hypothesis, and The Odd Endeavor], fractal generations, photography, sculpture, and audio/video installation. I am a member of South Arts Association, Pittsburgh Poetry Exchange, and Happy Hour Review. I have displayed my arts in various galleries and venues around the Pittsburgh area. I have also picked up several awards in the course. I work at my process considerably, knowing I have not reached my plateau yet – nor will I in any foreseeable future.
