About My Art
The art of little things…
On a cosmic scale, art — like life — is a function of rhythm, and all artists create by ear: Painters paint by ear, sculptors sculpt by ear, composers compose by ear, writers write by ear, actors act by ear, and photographers capture moments in time by ear. Precisely because art imitates life, there is no creation outside the rhythm. At least not for me.
Of course, we are all attracted to magnificent and grand spectacles like sunsets and cityscapes and mountain ranges and Bengal tigers and Super Bowls. My art, however, finds meaning and form in mostly little, obscure, and commonplace things — the things others often ignore or neglect.
In truth we live our lives not in grand moments or spectacles, but in thousands of little moment-to-moment snapshots: mostly quiet, mostly commonplace, mostly pedestrian, and mostly without fanfare or celebrity of any sort. These are the snapshots that -- over a period of years and decades -- build a life. Likewise, these are the snapshots, the little moments in time, that catch my eye and find expression in my art: what I call the art of little things.
I hope you find pleasure and meaning in my work. I hope you find yourself...
