Abstract Visual Adventures
My sole purpose is to create captivating, vibrant, joyful adventures that will never be relegated to "wallpaper" status - you know, the type of paintings that people just walk by without stopping to admire. Visual elevator music.
And no, I don't channel the pain, sadness and despair I felt after my accident. I've already experienced that, so.... why relive? My art hopefully reflects the simple fact that I'm just happy to be alive. Enjoy!
From Accident to Artist
An unexpected thing happened as I was jogging into the ocean in Mexico, May 2018: the sand gave way under my foot and I tripped, fell and broke my neck.
Today, I am a tretraplegic that is 85% paralyzed with no movement in my fingers. Miraculously, however, I now have the ability to paint (I was stick-figure guy at best before). How well I paint, well... that's up to you.
I owe the discovery - which is referred to as Acquired Savant Syndrome, with about 35 diagnosed - to my art therapist at Kessler Rehab who was trying to improve my muscle memory and motor skills. We had only four (4) short sessions, but as soon as I had a brush in my hand, ideas began to flood my consciousness.
My Story & How I Paint
Painting From A Different Perspective
Abstract Art from "Four Corners"
I use a unique painting process described as "the four corners" technique, whereby I paint on a canvas laying flat on a table, and rotate it until completed. I therefore paint from "all four corners and sides", essentially painting four paintings at once.
The result: you decide which orientation you like best, giving you a completely different viewing experience than ever before.
