my part of the deal was to be paint non-stop all day, all night!

Untitled – V | acrylic on canvas | 36″ x 36″ | 2010 |

Nature sheds around me a deep influence, and whenever I find myself be with my own self, I can perceive the soul of beauty in nature with its brilliant hues recollected and imprinted in and through my art. As my art makes my path clear to reach my destination, I find myself going along with nature. I feel as if flying with birds and clouds with wind in the vast blue sky as my companions, this is a strange relationship and so strong that it lingers till eternity.

“Reality with substance” | acrylic on canvas | 48″ x 48″ | 2011 |

The magic of these lines prevail over the whole universe and gives an identity to unknown objects of nature. All these lines find their evolution from that single line which when splits gives multitude lines and colours but this division is never still, it is ever transforming and moving my life for me. My art is also like these ever flowing lines and colours.

“Different path to God” | acrylic on canvas | 36″ x 36″ | 2011 |

I believe abstraction can touch upon something primary about our direct perception of being human. I’m interested in connecting the complex relationships between the natural world and personal experience as they relate to color, scale, line, texture and direction.

STICKS & STONES by ABOVE

Adelaide australia slow group effort 600x400 STICKS & STONES by ABOVE

I was flown to Adelaide, Australia to paint a mural on a 63 metre (200 foot) long wall. Within just 3 days of my arrival I fell and broke my scapula in 2 parts as well as suffering from a head concussion ending up in the hospital twice. Part of my responsibilities for this mural project was to be a mentor to 3 already extremely talented local Australian artists making this project a collaborative effort and highly entertaining. As a collective we decided to comment and paint a word play to relate the adversities of this wall’s rocky surface, and fact that I literally fell broke my bones during this project. In the end it was the words that were always there to save us!

Please familiarize yourself with the amazingly talented crew of artists who made this project come to life & watch video:
