artist comments

you need to be the centre of your Art – not the viewer, looking on, otherwise you`ll be the visitor, distant and distracted

truth and beauty is the only reason an artist has picked up a paint brush, a camera, written a poem – anything else, I will show you a catalogue of mediocrity

where do I get the hunger? that comment displays your failure

beauty is the artists eternal quest

begin at purity – which is nature – accept that, then the quest begins
