How else do you find inspiration? There are many things that inspire me: life’s many circumstances, my wife, my family and friends, especially my niece Camryn, street art, music, Native American Line Form Designs, and collaborating with other artists.
How do you prepare for creating something? Sometimes I actually have a whole idea and sketch that I’ve created and start right off fleshing out the painting until its completion. But most of my paintings start with drips, splashes, and layers & layers of paint. What I am doing is trying to find what I want to paint. It is in there, it just takes a bit of time for it to come out.
What artists inspire you? Basquiat, Pollock, Picasso, Dali, Jeremy Fish, David Choe, Zach Bohnenkamp, Sensei 23
