Quote: “I believe in the energy of art, and through the use of that energy, the artist’s ability to transform his or her life, and by example, the lives of others.” | “For me art is a continuous discovery into reality, an exploration of visual data which has been going on for centuries, each artist contributing to the next generation’s advancement. I wanted to go a step further and extend the boundaries.”
