I create conceptual contemporary abstract artwork on paper and canvas. It makes sense that I would create abstract art work because I have never been able to color in the lines, am not a fan of coloring books, never make chocolate chip cookies the same way twice, so it makes sense that I have a hard time following rules when it comes to making art. Rules have a function. They establish a foundation from which an artist can expand, experiment and explore ideas in the pursuit of creativity, discovery and art. If creativity and discovery are what art is, and I believe they are, then art needs to fall outside of established foundations, lines, rules and boundaries. It also makes sense that my work would be conceptual, it reinforces my philosophical values such a s freedom and independence.
