EXCAVATIONS OF ABSTRACT FIGURATIVE - 2020
- October 11, 2020 08:38
ZULEMA, A MIRRORED IMAGE OF A RECENT
ABSTRACT FIGURATIVE WORK CONTINUES MY
EXPLORATIONS WHEREBY IT FEELS LIKE I AM
EXCAVATING, IN THIS CASE, AN ANCIENT QUEEN
FROM AN AFRICAN TRIBE. THESE ARE 100% SPONTANEOUS
CREATIONS, THERE IS NO PRE-SKETCHING OF ANY KIND,
JUST ME AND MY SELECTED MEDIUMS, THERE IS A MOMENT
WHEN I CLOSE MY EYES AND WHEN I OPEN THEM,
I JUST GO AT IT, AN ARTWORK IS BORN, WHERE NOTHING
EXISTED BEFORE. I AM GOING TO SHARE A VERY PERSONAL
MOMENT BECAUSE THIS IS MY LIFE'S JOURNEY.
AT TIMES, I TEAR UP UPON SEEING WHAT OR WHO I CREATED,
BECAUSE I AM SHOCKED BY MY IMAGINATION, IT FEELS LIKE
I AM IN A TRANCE OF SORTS, SOME OF MY CLOSEST PEEPS
AND COLLECTORS WILL TELL YOU, I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER
EVERY ARTWORK I CREATE, MY WIFE WILL TELL YOU!
UPON LEAVING FOR THE EAST COAST LAST YEAR IN
JULY OF 2019 TO PRESENT MY HISTORIC JOSEPHINE BAKER EXHIBIT,
I ASKED MY WIFE WHO WAS STILL IN LOS ANGELES TO GO TO MY
ART STUDIO TO OVERSEE A SERIOUS CLEANING UP, ARTWORKS
WERE EVERYWHERE OF JOSEPHINE BAKER AND OTHERWISE,
PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT ASIDE FROM CREATING JOSEPHINE,
I WAS STILL CREATING OTHER ARTWORKS WITH MANY OTHER SUBJECTS
AND THEN MY ABSTRACT FIGURATIVE AND ABSTRACT EXPRESSIONISM
ARTWORKS JUXTAPOSED WITH NEOEXPRESSIONISM. MY WIFE CALLED
ME AND SAID THERE WAS OVER 1000 ARTWORKS I LEFT BEHIND,
ALL CREATED IN 2018 AND 2019. ONE OF MY INTERNATIONAL AGENTS
PROFOUNDLY ASSOCIATED WITH THE FAMILY OF PABLO PICASSO,
EXPRESSED TO ME THAT I CREATE AT THE SAME RATE AS PICASSO.
SO WHEN U SEE ME CONSTANTLY POST ARTWORKS,
REALIZE THAT I AM UNVEILING JUST A PORTION OF WHAT I CREATE,
MANY OF MY COLLECTORS WHO I KNOW ARE ATTRACTED BY CERTAIN GENRES
OF ART I CREATE, ARE SENT ARTWORKS FOR CONSIDERATION FIRST
AND THEN, MANY GO TO MY AGENTS. SOON, THERE IS A NEW EXCLUSIVE
AGENT IN DALLAS I AM EXCITED ABOUT. THE ARTWORKS I POST ON FACEBOOK,
ARE HANDLED BY GALLERIE MICHAEL KILGORE AND NOT BY AN AGENT,
SO ALWAYS FEEL FREE TO INQUIRE INBOX, IF THERE ARE SPECIFIC TYPE
OF ARTWORKS YOU ARE YEARNING FOR, EITHER I OR SOMEONE
FROM MY GALLERIE WILL HELP YOU FINE THAT PERFECT PIECE.
MY ABSTRACT ARTWORKS ARE SELLING LIKE CRAZY, I AM THANKFUL.
THANKS FOR TAKING TIME TO DISCOVER WHO I AM REGARDING
MY LIFE AS A FINE ARTIST, THE ONLY LIFE I KNOW THAT IN FACT,
LED TO MY CAREER AS A FASHION DESIGNER. FEELING BLESSED
AND I HOPE YOU FEEL BLESSED TODAY AS WELL. GOD IS EPIC!!!
