I captured this selection of a couple drawings I layered together because it emphasized this concept of letting the forces of nature do their things as I draw and create. Media have minds of their own often times I’ve noticed over the years. It first started with this notion of working with works of art I wasn’t satisfied with and not giving up and loving them anyway. Then it developed into this idea of capitalizing on mistakes as abstract expressionists showed me. Finally I realized I am a part of nature and I act upon and within nature as a natural force myself, so art just became this flow of letting all these forces of nature interact with each other and selecting material that gave me satisfaction. And so I share this satisfaction.

Concomitant Comets (version 1)
This piece gives you a better idea of my creations in combining mosaicism, chimerism, and hybridization. It’s a chimera because there are three different source images composing this aggregation, hence creating a new “beast.” It’s a mosaic because of all the little bits and pieces of shapes formed into the composition you see here. It’s a hybrid because it is a combination of traditional media with digital media.
The text you see incorporated into the design is my own words obtained from a tweet I tweeted out on Twitter yesterday. It says “How do you just know relationship dynamics between people you’ve never met in your life? Do you have other senses than just 5 senses?”
It’s sort of a generic meditation, but, surprisingly enough, it still is relevant. People are still taught idiocy in school with respect to relationships, power, intuition, spirituality, and so forth. I see school as beneficial overall, but there is a ridiculous amount of information that is intentionally suppressed in order to keep people unquestioning, disempowered, and disconnected.
It is with this image, and many of my other images, that I hope to spark that creative urge; that prime cause; that initial output in people. Inspiration can trigger; it can awaken others to their own purposes; to their own visions; to their own dreams rejected from long ago. I strive to imbue my art work with a quality that has the power to raise the dead dreams in peoples’ psychic, emotional, and spiritual graveyards.
