THE KING’S RETREATED

Concept

Creativity has been always essential to my being. I believe that art comes from oneself and should not be directed by anyone's rules or techniques, so search for new ideas and evoking new sensations is fundamental in my art.

I studied Graphic Design, which gave me a way to incorporate my love of fine art into a more marketable skill. Not only was I able to make a good living, I also had a new direction for my art. My hope is that people viewing my work will gain insight into my vision of the world as well as their own.

Painting is a comfortable medium to me. It comes naturally and I paint what I feel.
I like to get something onto the canvas quickly so as not to lose the feeling I have
at that particular moment. I either do quick sketches and then move right to the painting. As an artist I feel symbolism is my favorite element in my own art. To be able to sign a meaning and draw there own relation to that piece.

In creating my paintings, I try to create images that tell a story, or invoke a feeling for the subject matter. My aim is to portray this story in beautiful colors and tones that match the subject matter's mood.

Painting is such a pleasure for me that I can only hope that when I have signed my name to a finished work, that it will bring pleasure for viewers somewhere, sometime, someplace.
