World of Art.

As an artist, I see many different forms and types of art. There are some that people do not even consider as art. Having my masters in painting has helped me to see the art world in a whole new light. In art history, one of the discussions was on if a tower of bananas was considered art and why. Another was if people considered a simple red dot in the middle of a painting was considered art.

Not everyone sees anything beyond a sculpture, a painting or a charcoal piece, being art. While others find everything, like the pile of bananas, to all be art. But what is art to you? What does art mean to you?

To me, there are many different forms, one being tattooing. I am not only a painter, but a tattooer as well. It is a more permanent form of art, which can be very nerve wracking. It is a way to do art every day, a form of art that a person wears on their skin. It is a form of art that someone can be buried with. It is constantly being show cased and a person does not have to go to a museum in order to see it.

A friend of mine came all the way from Florida for this custom tattoo I created. Having them come all the way from a different state, to get something that I created, was insane. I have since done a few more tattoos on her, and the first one I ever did healed beautifully. I love being able to see how it looks now (three years later).

Art is something I will always want to have in my every day life. It is apart of me and something that i will continue to love.
