Comments from the artist:
I was a restaurant owner delving into the culinary arts
before discovering photography and computers a few
years ago. Drawing has always been a hobby of mine.
Having no previous education in art, I experimented freely
combining my love for all three mediums. As you can see,
my art is a reflection of the perception of myself (yes, I am
a Gemini) and those around me. In most images, I find a
natural inclination towards incorporating elements in sets of
twos expressing the dueling natures within the Gemini. Dark and light
are almost always defined. I feel I have embraced unconventionality
and it has been very well received by others.
Some of my influences are James Abbe, Maxfield Parrish,
Icart, Mapplethorpe, Klimt, H.R. Giger, and Salvador Dali.
I have tried to focus on more classical effects in a modern digital
medium. Layers of meaning and symbolism as well as visual layers
are present. The colors used are very specific in their symbolism
which is repeated throughout my work.
My work can be viewed and purchased at Imagery by Aimea.
