Black Lake in Louisiana. One of my favorite places. I could drift in my pirogue for hours enjoying the reflections, the ripples and waves, the sky, and the imposing cypress trees. Cypress trees are a symbol of resilience to me. Growing in these environments that are over saturated and unhospitable for most trees. They are adapted to overcome. Pneumatophores or cypress knees are reaching out of the depths for oxygen. I'm exploring ideas of personal growth, endurance, determination and a host of other qualities that are embodied within resilience. Furthermore, I am beginning to explore and experiment with the ripples, waves, and reflections as symbolize. Though I intend to comment more heavily on these investigations in works yet to come. My work is a marriage of exploration and expression– my feelings and ideas on such motifs as humanity, truth, and metaphysics are made manifest through art. I am inspired by, and drawn to, the beauty and complexity of nature. For this reason, landscapes and nature are my primary vehicles for said exploration and expression. With influences like tattoo and graffiti art, hotrod paint jobs, Dr. Seuss, comic books, Van Gogh, and Charles Burchfield, I have managed to create my own form of expressionism that brings wild landscapes to life in gallery spaces. This expressionism does more than comment on my own emotions. The act of looking at the world I inhabit carefully and trying to transcribe it into art teaches me both about myself and the world in which I currently reside. I learn things in the close examination of my surroundings and the translation process, where I try to turn my thoughts into works of art. Once this process is complete, I then share my findings with others via that art. Regardless of language or situation art facilitates fellowship with my fellow man. This is a painting of a Lake that I grew up exploring in Louisiana. A place of beauty, life, and mystery.

I’m a creator, a servant leader, an explorer, and an educator. Born and raised in rural Louisiana, I missed out on an art education in high school, but quickly became fascinated with art in college. A spark was ignited, and learning about art and learning in general pretty well consumed me. Even to this day I strive to learn and improve in many disciplines. I’m currently sojourning in Dallas with my wife and 3 children. For the time, I am teaching sculpture to high school students and giving back to the art community to make sure that our next generation is getting the quality art education that I missed out on in high school. Along side teaching, I show art throughout the United States as well as internationally. My work is a marriage of exploration and expression—my feelings and ideas on such motifs as the human condition, truth, and metaphysics are made manifest through painting and sculpture. Because I am inspired by the beauty and complexity in nature, landscapes and nature are my primary vehicles for said exploration. With influences like tattoo and graffiti art, Dr. Seuss, comic books, Van Gogh, and Charles Burchfield, I have managed to create my own form of expressionism that brings wild landscapes to life in gallery spaces. This expressionism does more than comment on my own emotions. The act of looking at the world I inhabit carefully and trying to transcribe it into art teaches me both about myself and the world around me. I learn things in the close examination of my surroundings and the translation process, where I try to turn my thoughts into works of art. Once this process is complete, I then share my findings with others via that art. Art, to me, is a gift of self-discovery that allows for fellowship with my fellow man in a significant way, regardless of language or situation.
