Arts & Crafts Around the world

   I won't pretend that my art has any more meaning
                                
                                
than what it simply means. I am neither trying to
                                
                                
change the world with it, nor make anyone understand
                                
                                
exactly what is in my mind. I think that that is
                                
                                
impossible. It is just simply art, in purest form;
                                
                                
emotion on paper. I don't concentrate on the creation
                                
                                
of it. And I most certainly do not spend time
                                
                                
wondering if any one person will be able to relate.
                                
                                
I just have a feeling that needs to come out; and
                                
                                
so it does. Sometimes it's sadness, sometimes I
                                
                                
feel sexy, sometimes it is just love. And that is all.
                                
                                
     I am almost untrained. I studied photography
                                
                                
and computer graphics in high school, fell in love
                                
                                
with them, and here I am. I participated in a few

festival in Florida) and one for a national computer
                                
                                
technology conference brochure design (which I did
                                
                                
place second in). I work as a graphic designer for

my spare time work on various, projects. I love
                                
                                
Photoshop and use it to create all of my pieces with
                                
                                
the exception of a few paintings.  Nobody taught me
                                
                                
more than the basics, and I am almost grateful for
                                
                                
that because now I am working on "blank canvas".
                                
                                
There are no rights and wrongs; I can do and
