When I was really young, I gravitated towards the visual arts first. I feel that's what comes most naturally to me. I've always had an immediate proclivity towards making visual art and I was a really tactile kid.

Speak with your own voice and be as unique as you possibly can.

I take myself seriously and want my image to me more than just something aesthetically suited towards selling records.

In fact, many musicians are the happiest when the artist and audience re-interpret or re-imagine the content of the songs.

I feel like I've gotten to the point where when I get tired of making art I can make a smooth transition into making music and vice versa. There is always something to do.

The important thing isn't that your technically great, I think it's the power of your expression.

Drawing from art history and mythology allows me to connect with viewers in a familiar, yet loose visual framework. Blending disparate histories and themes can give the overall presentation a recognizable, yet unique flavor.
