About
My art emerges from a deep engagement with various occult traditions and the secretive societies that surround them. I explore the terrain of dreams, nightmares, and fear—realms often expressed through both figurative and abstract imagery. Bizarre objects, fantastical narratives, and symbolic elements serve as portals into the mysteries that fuel our curiosity. Taken from conspiracy theory
s and Surrealism, especially the evocative works of Salvador Dalí, has profoundly shaped my visual language. Yet my influences extend beyond Surrealism to include Contemporary Art, Modernist Primitivism, and Expressionism—each offering unique lenses through which I examine the human condition. I strive to create work that resonates viscerally with viewers, inviting them into layered stories embedded within each piece. My imagery provokes thought and emotion, revealing the psychological weight behind color, composition, and symbolic abstraction.Dare to dream. Dare to feel. Dare to see beyond the veil.
I currently am the founder at the PW School of Art in Bronx, NY. The first independent art school of its kind. You are much welcomed to come in for art for the day or sign up for classes. Please click on the website link for more information. This is WHERE ART BEGINS!
Please be advised that not all of my paintings are for sale but for exhibition. If you'd like a print please contact me at the email provided.
Disclaimer: I may or may not believe or subscribe to the religions I capture in paint but view religions with respect and intrigue. If any of this offends you I apologize with the utmost sincerity but I regress, for it is a form of artistic impression which allows me to look at my subjects with non-objection and speculation.
