Phosphoresence
One of my favorite mediums on select works is phosphorescence .Not only does it invoke in myself and others a sense of joy, mystery and wonder; but it is also a profound process of finding myself out of the darkest places in myself and the world around me. It is almost a therapy that connects me directly to my inner child through memory and magic. From bioluminescence, of auroras to meteor showers, to the glow of city streets, to hallways and rooms filled with nostalgic black light posters, or memories of decorating my childhood spaces and my sons room with stars; we can all be transfixed by light against darkness. It is in the dark where sometimes light becomes most beautiful, most sacred, and most meaningful. It is also a rebellion against the darkness itself, that it shall not reign supreme. I spend eternal moments into the witching hours deep in work, in reflection, in fascination, and to freeze the ephemeral flashback of the psychedelic experience. I hope to share with the viewer some if not all of the sensation of delight and bliss I feel when creating these pieces.
