Statement
I approach painting through fantastic forms in an attempt to draw out the human essence to the canvas. In the space between myself and the painting, I experience myself as a crucified man; neither on heaven nor on earth. For me, surrealism is a gentle fluid that breathes life into the limitless playground of reality.
