So heavy is the human experience, that we are weighted down by the simplest act of being. The Human Condition is a struggle for the weightlessness of living simply and cohesively.

The good and bad / Ideal or not / You and I / We are creating

What is the visual aesthetic of the human experience ? -It is what can best emphasize the state of our social exchange, and like the collective circumstance, the medium is limitless.

Our struggle for cohesive weightlessness can be ultimately messy yet light. Let me educate and interpret our situation through my art.

If this experience is ours, made moment by moment for us to enjoy, and if we can punctuate every second with personality, charm, humor, wit, and wonder, then I will seek to illustrate the accomplishment, on any medium procurable!

I was born in the Midwest, and Atlanta is my home. I do prefer to travel though, because this is where I draw the bulk of my inspiration.

Seeing other cultures, gaining new insights, seeking various paradigm shifts, working towards the next level in everything I do is always my goal. I went to school in Atlanta College of Art, and am a merit scholarship winner.

My medium of choice is anything that allows for expression. I’ve worked in paint, paper, apparel, film and television –You name the medium and I’ve coated its surface with whatever creative attention I can offer it. I am an observer –watching and studying everything. I am a designer –working out details, I am a thinker –methodically contemplating.

More then an artist, I wish to be a contributor to those who I can help illustrate and spread a vision.
