Fine Art

The challenge in any art lies in mastering the technique of translating thoughts, feelings and ideas into artifacts and in so doing overcoming certain constraints.

Each piece represents a form and an idea as expressed in the title. The mediums are entirely mixed and unscripted. Any and every tool at hand is used to render the image for a visual experience unique to the eye of the beholder. Whether it is “art” or “fine” is a distinction outside the realm of the artist’s concern.
