The End is Nigh
Acrylic paint on panel canvas
My inspiration is the death of yourself and a new journey is at hand. You have to find yourself all over again. Where will you end up? Instead of a crow or raven on the headstone, I chose a wood duck. I've had to look deep inside to see the light in death. Sometimes the light isn't what we want.

Identity Statement
I want to be seen as a person, not a number. I treat people the way I'd like to be treated. My whole life I've tried to figure out who I am. I'm still looking. I'm an artist, musician, brother, son, and a loyal friend. I like to change my appearance every so often, just for a change of a way I'm feeling. I've had a rough life but I don't dwell on it. I do think my art work reflects my moods or darkness of life. I tend to lean towards the darkness or scary stuff and music. Pain, abuse and being lost has made me who I am today. I lost my father in 2017 so I know true heartbreak.
What role does art play in your life?
I work with art every day. It's my escape and a way to express myself safely. Bad days inspire me, good days, music, movies, something someone says, maybe a nightmare or dream. I look to take an empty canvas and put my feelings on it and see what people think. I like to paint for my friends so they can enjoy. Makes me feel good and privileged that they want it and enjoy it. Plus, money is nice too!
