Personal Aesthetic Statement
I am naturally curious about how thing work. I am also and mechanically inclined. As a child, If it could be taken apart, I would take it apart. I love food and enjoy cooking. I enjoy the challenges of creating a dish with ingredients on hand rather that follow a recipe. I enjoy the outdoors and nature. My favorite colors are earth tones; green being at the top of that list. I have always been oppositional as well as having ADD. Therefore, I do not want to organize myself but I know I have to. When told no, I see a challenge has been presented to me. I do not like bureaucracy and/or BS. I do not tolerate lying.
I do not consider myself an artist, but have held the title of web designer. I consider myself more of a technician that has design skills. Simplicity can inspire me if not too simplistic. Bauhaus style is too simplistic. My tastes are eclectic. Asian art inspires me with it’s calmness. The boldness of Andy Warhol is inspiring. Escher’s complexity and detail make me envious. Pablo Picasso, Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera are among my favorites in surrealism, by their art but by the social and personal messages they portrayed.
