BIO | ARTIST STATEMENT | RESUME | EXHIBITS
"I think art is the only thing that's spiritual in the world. And I refuse to be forced to believe in other people's interpretations of God. I don't think anybody should be. No one person can own the copyright to what God means." My work has always been heavily influenced by music and popular culture. I try to take themes such as religion, drug use, the media, and the human condition and make an honest portrayal of those elements. Often, music provides the inspiration, using lyrics and raw emotion to portray those themes. My own life has been a source of much inspiration as well. My life has been a series of contradictions and disappointment, but I've found that through sorrow comes joy. Everyday I find that the things that provide the most pain are often the things that have provided me with the greatest sense of happiness.
