THE STORY IS THE ART

It’s not so much the art, as it is the story. A story that my God told through my soul at my urging – absent me determining in advance or along the process the outcome. Many stories among one, that had no beginning, middle nor end. Stories that continue to evolve even when the paintContinueContinue reading “THE STORY IS THE ART”

TO: Art Aficionados

They’re all leaders, which makes all life and non-life leaders. Nobody is only a follower. You lead your own life and follow your own rules byContinueContinue reading “UNLEASHING THE BEAST”
