Artist Statement
"The method I have created over the years begins in a silent-mind meditation. I then allow the first higher thought that enters my mind to forge the direction of the artwork. I call this process “First Thought Creation”. I have no expected outcome of the work. Essentially, I am just the listener. I look to observe Synchronicity from the largest events to the tiniest detail which informs my art making. To me, the artwork means nothing. What it evokes means everything."
