About the Book
My methodologies have been in an effort toward both the conscious and sublime artistic disciplines. It is for you the reader to decide what is better for you in the end, spontaneity, systematic implementation, or something in-between. My discernment of my own intuition and the governing of both universal and my invented forms combines into personal expressions throughout this book. I hope its level of originality is enough to inspire artists, poets, musicians, scholars, and connoisseurs alike. As well as the everyday person who might stumble upon it.
Spiralchemation presents its authenticity to the reader by ways of shape, light, color, fundamentals, behavior, and music. My perceptions, observations, love, knowledge, and research have guided this system from its early beginnings in 2014 when I gathered my thoughts for my earliest “Universe Diagram.” It meets its final form here in this book.
Spiralchemation's grand finale tapers with a short story for Betsy Baker and with poems written for Taylor Alison Swift - pensive, fun loving, and confident forays that attempt to impress!

About the Creator
I am an artist who cherishes reason, balance, and ambiguity. I express it through a variety of working methods – from abstracted landscapes to nonobjective paintings of grids. I have many bodies of work in painting and poetry – to rhyming and prose poems – and I believe discovery exists at the edges of perception. My Mom and Dad have been my best and greatest influences. Brice Marden’s and Agnes Martin’s work in painting and writing are among them. In poetry – William Butler Yeats, Emily Dickinson, Ralph Waldo Emerson's work in both poetry and essays, Jack Kerouac, Charles Bukowski, Janet Frame, William Blake, and Edgar Allan Poe’s work are ever present among many of my contemporaries, both male and female. I received my Bachelors of Fine Art from the School of Visual Arts in New York City, with honors. My Masters of Fine Art is from Hunter College, City University of New York.
