Artist Bio:
"Don't dream a dream, live a dream and let reality sleep."
- Eyvo Johnson
As an artist, is it I who defines painting or is it painting that defines me...?
To discover my very own nature, I allow paint to become my external means of expression.
In a sense, painting is like writing a fable, one without words and one that is rather suggested in nature. And it that process, I say...forget all that you know, for originality can only be achieved by reaching into your own infinite possibilities. The quantum mechanics of art is where the gaps between thoughts emerge onto the canvas in the same form as music emerges from between the strings of an instrument. And when it happens, Art completes life, bringing to focus what nature cannot bring to finish.
