Modus Operandi

You need to have the skill and the techniques, know the 
rules to then break them, a mix of technique and skill with 
the creative mind shows the passion and dedication, not 
the bullshit of ignorance, and laziness shown in most work 
today. It is very easy to create a message, and art has 
become so lazy that it now has words in it, that's not 
painting its crap what ever happened to the saying a 
painting says a thousand words, now they actually spell 
them, before I went to art school I was painting what I 
wanted expressionism but I was frustrated as I did not 
have the skill to portray what I really felt, and I found my 
abstract expressionalist art, I was being lazy and ignorant 
and also extremely arrogant to think that I knew how to 
paint or draw, but art is forever learning forever discovering 
and developing out of the laziness of the modern world, 
I do not wish to portray more repetition repeating the 
icons out there, and the world out there, I am on a quest to 
portray the intelligence of life in all its glory and the ignorance 
of the human race at this point of time. Most art out there is 
just repetitious crap with no soul but just copying and no 
skills to really show the magnificence of what they are 
really feeling. not follow the fashion and repeat and repeat art 
got lost when the artist thought they could change the world, 
and when we realized our art needs to be a logo of ourselves. 
I have yet so much work to do and I see my old work as very naive.
