Artist’s Statement:
Drawing is the magic that occurs in the one thousand miles from the image in my head to the strokes I place on the paper.
I see life drawing as the muscle and bone of figurative art. Regardless of its size or shape, the human body is an endless form of beauty. It is in this venue that the artist can express feelings of power, force, motion, and decadence through the composition and placement of a line. In all its elegance, mastery of the human form allows the artist to be flexible and creative interpreting and executing his ideas.
I use the human figure in my work to express emotional ideas or illustrations through exaggeration and/or distortion, its placement and pose. My objective is not to copy the figure of the model before me, but to examine it and use it in another context.
Drawing is one of the most intrinsic aspects of art as it is often reveals how the artist sees the world. My inspiration and appreciation for drawing the human form come from my study and fascination with the masters and their perspective of the human figure.
