When i was four years old, my realization was to do art. Perhaps from another lifetime and place. Not a day is missed whereby something is created from my inner mind. Visions pour in continuously and particularly while in my dream state, while sleeping. The images are then stored in my memory for use later. My history involves designing and producing animated films, while in high school. Entered several art shows, selling paintings and garnering a first place award at a show in Ft. Madison, Iowa in 1991, for a large acrylic painting. Many people do not understand my visions, neither would like to see my work on their walls, however, some do. Where i am going with this path is to create and design art which is not recognizable and cannot be easily identified. The music i prefer flows from this same concept. Music from Robert Rich, Steve Roach, Jon Hassel, Vidna Obmana Patrick O’Hearn, Stephan Thelen, Bill Laswell and David Torn are clearly good examples of extraordinary music selections to get me there. Lately, i have researched the Zero Point Energy field, or the cosmic mind, whereby all constructs, ideas, matter, energy and being is made up of a quantum entanglement. All is intrinsically connected. This is what some call God or religion. Yet, truly this where profound concepts originate. We all have the capacity to open and transcend to touch that realm.
