He is currently continuing his art education and finishing up his degree with the art program at Dodge City Community College, available now for only $43 per credit hour.
Artist's Statement
My physical art tries to bridge the gap between precisely recreating reality and impossible fantastical designs.
My music visualizers blend our two most powerful senses, sight and sound. Sight is by far the most dominant of our senses. The power to see is the power to be able to almost reach out and touch the entire world around us all at once.
Music can instantly connect people across huge distances and staggering amounts of time. Music has a direct and powerful effect on our emotions. It's a universal language that every human that ever is, was, or will exist speaks. Almost nothing else has such a direct shot straight to the heart as music. Music can even impact our physical health. It makes sense that fusing our two most powerful senses could create an even more enjoyable and powerful experience.
