"From a young boy to the present day, I have been deeply passionate about the arts. My lifelong mission is to create intriguing works of art across visual and musical mediums, crafting spaces for meditative reflection—art as an oasis of peace in a world that often moves too fast.
At the age of ten, a classical pianist studying at Interlochen in Michigan lived with my family, introducing me to the wonders of classical music and my first orchestral performance. By fourteen, I recorded my first original soundscape. At nineteen, I developed a portfolio of drawings that secured my acceptance into the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design. During my time there, I began creating a series of video art pieces for cable TV titled Paintings in Videosound.
At twenty-eight, I took a detour from physical visual media and co-founded the improvisational soundscape group Ma Ja Le, which led to two record deals and opportunities in the emerging digital music scene and its related software. This software also opened doors to non-linear video editing and creation.
By forty-eight, after producing numerous commercial and original music projects, I exhibited with the FRAG art group, which led to an invitation to showcase at the Impressions Gallery in Kingsport, TN—reigniting my passion for physical media.
In November 2024, I became fascinated with the developments in AI animation as a pathway to revive and expand my Paintings in Videosound series. This new medium provides a platform to further explore the marriage of imagery, music, and sound design, while also allowing me to extract prints from these digital explorations. The prints displayed here are part of this evolving series"
