About Me:

Hobbies are swimming, reading and traveling.

I try to constantly develop myself as an artist and sometimes this comes across as not knowing who I am as an artist, which is not the case. I think in order to grow as an artist we must push past our comfort zones and not become lazy or complacent and just paint the same thing over and over. Sure some people will want you to do the same thing so they can recognize your style but is that what art is about? Shouldn't we strive to see how far our minds will go; how large our imagination is? We sell ourselves out by taking the familiar road and that is not what artist are. We are imagination explorers. We have to do our personal best each time, so if we do the same style, subject matter over and over are we saying then, that this is only how deep a thinker/dreamer I am? I'm not saying it's easy. But we all know making art isn't easy.

At 11:31am on July 31, 2009, Angus said…: Thanks so much for the timely help. My travels are in connection with my work - I have spent a majority of my life in Asia and the Middle East. The pictures I would like to show (not necessarily sell) are about the people I have met in my travels. I will followup on the leads you suggested. Once again, thanks so much for taking the time.
