artist statement

I THINK ART SHOULD SPEAK TO ITS VEIWER, AND SAY LOOK AT ME, EMBRACE ME, LOVE ME, I AM HERE FOR YOU, AND YOU ARE HERE FOR ME.
 

ART IS MY THERAPY. ART IS MY LIFE, AND I DO NOT BELIEVE AN ARTIST SHOULD EVER FEEL LIMITED IN STYLES OR CONTENT.
 

THEREFORE, I WORK IN A FEW DIFFERENT STYLES. EACH HAS A PURPOSE TO CAPTURE THINGS THAT REPRESENT A TIME IN MY STORY OR MY BELIEFS AND IDEOLOGIES. 

MY ORIGINAL BODIES OF WORK, WHICH ARE STILL SOME OF MY FAVORITE, CONSIST OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CREATION, THE DEVINE FEMININE. I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN INTRIGUED WITH NOT ONLY THE PHYSICAL BUT THE MIND AND SPIRIT OF A STRONG AND BEAUTIFUL WOMAN, AND I TRY TO PAY HOMAGE AND RESPECT TO THAT THROUGH MY REALISM FIGURATIVES.
 

SINCE I WAS A KID, I LOVED INTERIOR DESIGN AND ABSTRACT ART THAT WENT ALONG WITH IT. IT CAPTURES EMOTION AND IT SETS A TONE FOR THE SPACE IN WHICH IT IS VIEWED. MY SPONTANEOUS ENERGETIC SPIRIT COMES ALIVE IN THESE PIECES, AND PRESENTS A THERAPEUTIC FREEDOM ONLY FOUND IN ABSTRACT ART.

THREE YEARS AGO I BEGAN USING REAL MONEY IN MY ART TO WASH AWAY THE MATERIALISTIC IMPRISONMENT THAT WE PLACE ON OURSELVES. IT WAS A TIME OF WORK WORK WORK, AND NEGLECTING OF HEALTH, AND RELATIONSHIPS. I WAS LIVING A FAST LIFE AND HAD SOME LIFE CHANGING EVENTS THAT LED ME TO WONDER WHAT MY LIFE WAS REALLY ABOUT. I REDIRECTED MY IDEOLOGY OF CHASING MONEY, TO FINDING TRUE WEALTH IN MY FAMILY, MY FRIENDS, MY ART, AND MY HEALTH. IT IS A WAY FOR ME TO PLACE MY VALUE IN MY ART, HIGHER THAN THE FALSE IDEA OF MONEY AS WEALTH. TRUE CREATION IS GREATER THAN MONEY.
 

SNEAK IS AN ACRONYM FOR SOMETHING NECESSARY EVERYWHERE & ALWAYS KING. IT APPLIES TO US AS HUMANS, THE MONEY THAT CONTROLS US, AND TO ALL ARTS OF THE WORLD. AS HUMANS WE SHOULD ALL TREAT OURSELVES AS KINGS AND QUEENS BEFORE WE EXPECT OTHERS TO DO THE SAME, AND WE MUST MAKE OURSELVES OF VALUE NO MATTER WHERE WE STAND IN LIFE. THE MONEY THAT CONTROLS US HAS BECOME A NECESSITY EVERYWHERE, AND CASH IS ALWAYS KING. THE ART AND CREATIVITY IS THE FOUNDATION TO OUR WORLD, AND IT IS MY KING. WE ARE ALL SNEAK. WE ARE ALL KINGS AND QUEENS AND WE SHOULD PUSH THOSE AROUND US TO CARRY THE SAME VALUE.

LEAD THE WAY, AND OWN YOUR JOURNEY.  DON’T BECOME THE MOULD, DON’T LET THEIR REALITY BECOME YOURS. BE YOURSELF, AND PUSH OTHERS TO STEP OUTSIDE OF THEIR BOX TO BE MORE THAN THE BOX ALLOWS.
 

WHERE LIMITS ARE ATTEMPTED TO BE INSTALLED AND INGRAINED, WE MUST EXPLORE AND EXPLODE WITH SOMETHING NEW AND UNIQUE AS EACH DAY PASSES.
 

INSPIRE CREATION, BE THE LIGHT, AND LEAD WITH AMBITION!
