"Central to my artistic practice is the belief that as a universal medium, art provides the opportunity to communicate beyond the limits of spoken language as a form of expression through which one can engage others with the perspectives, experiences, and uninhibited emotions that make us human, both as part of a collective and individuals simultaneously.
My work reflects a wide array of styles and mediums, specializing in oil and acrylic paintings as well as graphite, ink, pastel and charcoal drawings. He frequently experiments, working in realism and observational to abstract expressionism, gestural, cubism and surrealism. I believe that different art forms complement each other, often incorporating music into his visual arts work."
