Imagination is the word in some way crucial for your art … how does or should, that word<br />
relate to an artist?<br />
First, I should say I don’t have any “rules” about what “should” relate to any artist. For myself,<br />
the world of imagination and symbolic fantasy is a creative vehicle which allows for both penetrating<br />
philosophical exploration and playful expression.<br />
Is it important to remain true to yourself and your individual vision as an artist?<br />
Such a major question… the short answer - YES, absolutely. For me, ideas and concepts that<br />
form one’s ethics are concrete. I see the whole purpose regarding individual vision or some<br />
semblance of truth as summed up in the oft repeated quote “know thyself ”. I don’t know any<br />
other way to honestly engage that quest but to be genuine and sincere; true to self and the<br />
individual, as an artist and a human being.<br />
How do you see yourself and your art in the future … what do you wish?<br />
I have some specific goals I’m working on at the moment that I’m not ready to reveal but<br />
more importantly as a working modus operandi, I’m constantly trying to improve on my<br />
previous performance. With that in mind, the vision of my future, simply put, is to do the best<br />
that I’m capable of doing. Since none of us know the limit of our potential, I’m pushing to see<br />
what I’m capable of.<br />
What do I wish? I genuinely wish to produce works of art that I hold in the same regard as I<br />
have for for the other great artistic achievements of humanity and that my efforts might inspire<br />
someone else… nothing too humble:)<br />
