• Biography
  Mindless creativity is the practice of making art from one’s spirit. It requires the artist to remain in a stream of creative consciousness, or you may also call it, no mind. I begin the piece with color and forms only from my photos and then allow the process of choosing spontaneously direct the next step. From here my awareness is on balance, both in color and form as the image moves forward. In the end the image must feel grounded in something that resonates with my core even though I often have to sit with it for a while before I understand it’s significance, which is always perfect.
