About The Artist

Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting

I am a young artist in an Independent Study Mentorship class, and am studying studio art. I've studied Advanced Projects 2D, 3D and 4D at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago over the summer, and have hopes to obtain a future career as a professional artist or graphic designer. Last spring I was a state and gold seal winner at the Visual Arts Scholastic Event.

I've always been interested fine arts, however it was my enrollment in a physics class that led me on a quest to reconcile two unseemingly similar mediums: art and science. The two are not so different as one may think. Throughout history the artist has attempted to describe his world conceptually with visual mediums, just as the scientist attempts to explain conceptual theories in physical reality. As Leonard Shlain states: "Art anticipates scientific revisions of reality." Both are languages, both attempt to explain reality, and both are most certainly beautiful. This project focuses on building a bridge between art and science as two mediums of expression. The works will be shown at the Centro Cultural Atzlan building in the Deco District of San Antonio, Tx on May 4th, 2007.

Set 12- Tool

This final set forced me to step outside my boundraies. For this set I chose "tool" and used a different kind of tool to paint each piece. The first was painted with body, only using my hands to create the image. The second used an unconventional tool meaning something that is not traditionally used to paint such as a paintbrush. For this image I fabricated a bizarre little contraption that drew with paintpens simultaneously. The final painting was create using a conventional tool, or in this case a paintbrush.

What is particularly interesting about this set is that it deviates so much from the first. Just as the artwork in this project has evolved and the subject matter has become increasingly more abstract and complex, so too has my style of painting. I've evolved as an artist along with the paintings throughout this project and this set is a culmination of pieces I would never have been comfortable using in the first place.

Unconventional tools won with the highest bid.
