story creates art

i use art to tell a story. i make it to tell a silly tale, to express personality, to reveal a facet of our humanity.

art reveals story

sometimes i make art and the paper talks to me. i listen and something deep inside come out. form reveals itself, expressing the story.

art has always been my passion. i've been drawing one thing or another ever since i could hold a pencil. i see the world with lines around everything. it's as natural as breathing to me.

someone once wrote to me, "anything that increases the collective mirth and fun is surely a balm to society and therefore a vital ingredient to peace and joy in the world." art fills me with hope that there is a possibility for this.
