only by saving him from the seriousness of life
and restoring him to an unexpected boyishness."
John Lennon – 1968
ARTIST STATEMENT - feinart
I paint to teach others how to view life on a different plane; exercising their own interpretations to see through layers of paint. Like a mirror my work reflects the subconscious guided by my introspection. I work and think on an advanced level of painting using a myriad of different psychological aspects that are not always visible through the naked eye. I use psychology of colour and colour combinations as a mean to set the mood of the piece. I base my work on severalrelationship issues such as: subject matter, colour and mostly interaction between the piece and the viewer. When at work, I clear my head of racing thoughts of past, present and future to capture a moment of peace within my mind. I control the pace of my work. Unlike a photograph, I am not painting a frozen moment in time but creating a different time and place all together.
