Sorceror Series. Epilogue: The Turtle Triumphant


The Sorceror Series: The Turtle Triumphant
I am the Turtle Triumphant
I make my will reality
I am a sorceror becoming
I ignore what is not important
I defy what is not righteous
I discover what I have always been
I am a timeless entity traveling through existence
I am alive
I AM.
Its all about the dream. Its all about hope. Its all about change. Its all about responsibility. Its all about transcending. And that's all I have to say about that.

Art is the complexity of a crafted thought, an executed concept. It is bringing that which is not into being. Art is doing. Art is doing.

Silly Little Poem; Strange World.

I imagine human beings as they
pen plays, sing songs,
paint, scuplt,
sometimes build computers and rockets.

And I imagine they live in places like jungles where they
creep around for food
and, if they're not careful,
get eaten by things like
crocodiles.

Sorceror Series Finale: LOGOS I get out of all your boxes.


I completed this painting two months ago. Its the last painting in the series, well the last to be completed as there is an epilogue after this. It started as a totally different painting with a background of various newspaper clippings and the sorceror battling a many headed beast representing the troubles of life. But this journey, this long walk has taught me that this is not a war, this is a rescue mission. Well the first person I had to save was myself. So after the painting sat and stared at me for months I recreated it according to a sketch for a tattoo I've been thinking about getting. From there it became this. I'm hoping these paintings have a continuity to them(that's in homage to comics) and I hope they communicate something about my thirties. Its all about moving forward from here. The Last Look Back painting is in a show in Atlanta at the Apex museum and I may have an international showing in the works for 2007. Transformation begins and ends inside. That's were I am now. The Sorceror is the observer and the explorer. I guess now I gotta become something else.
