Trans Photo Digital Art
For as long as I can remember my life
has centered around art, from the love of music
to the world of dance and the drive to create and
participate in those art forms. There is an aesthetic
experience that occurs when a personal moment
with a viewer interacts. Pencil and watercolor
were the mediums I was first introduced when I
started creating art of the outer world. Computer
technology has afforded me the opportunity to use
the widely available tools to render my creative
inner world.
Today, my “trans photo digital artistry”
TM #86297561 work is abstract portraiture and
graphic works that employ traditional photographic
media pared with the benefit of digital technology. I
orchestrate the visual components using a variety
of techniques and programs by uploading digital
photographs, computer imagery and 3-D sculpting.
My heart, mind and soul are devoted to creating
the final abstract image.
I’ve heard it said that an artists
responsibility is to be a mirror for the society in
which he lives. Life can be stressful, chaotic and
downright overwhelming. I create artwork that
presents the viewer with the opportunity lo look at
life the way it is or was and embrace it in it entirety.
It pulls at the memory of its viewer by provoking
them to draw from their memories a place, a time
a moment that they can connect, which creates
joy from the memories stored within their soul and
heart.
