I create large abstract paintings and sell them to collectors all over the world. Check out my recent work in my originals shop or print shop!
Abstract art is challenging to describe. I could tell you that my paintings are based on something pretentious, or that I create them with deliberate intent to make some ambiguous political statement, but that would be a bunch of nonsense.
The truth is, I had a near-death experience when I was very young and that opened my mind up to something.
I don't know how to describe it, and I'm struggling to articulate it here, but it made it so these vivid colors and shapes jump into my mind when I'm dozing off. I can feel that they're from "somewhere else," but I'm not going to pretend to know what that's all about. I just paint what it shows me.
Story: My first sale as an artist
Story: My near-death experience
I've published 30 novels under various pen names and 7 became Amazon best-sellers. This success allowed me to leave the soul-crushing grip of Corporate America and pursue my creative career full-time.
Now I publish stories with my real name and use my artistic skills to draw characters and scenes. You can find out more about my books and upcoming release dates here.
I also write authentically about life experiences on my blog. It's like a diary/sketchbook. If you're new to my work, it'll give you a pretty good sample of my writing style.
