"If you're lucking enough in your lifetime you'll experience being whole as an artist early in life so you can create for many years until the day you leave this world passport in hand ready for your next adventure. I've been accused many times of reading the last page of the book first, that way I know if I want to spend my time reading the story that hides within the mutated trees. For me, my creative worlds collided with each other during the later part of last year. A lover of Science, Math, Art and Humanities I set out on a journey through the living essence of colour curious to connect the dots and unleash a rebirth of untamed organic creativity, The Age of the Artist was born.
This piece was not planned it was not sculpted it was born out of freedom, a freedom that is born with the revival of a communicative approach when a stranger sits in your chair and says those three words that every hairstylists LOVE HATES to hear, I Trust YOU. How, why is that even on the table yet? That's kind of absolutely NUTS, like handing over your brand new 2016 Audi R8 {want that} keys over to the lady in the crazy yellow feathered fascinator that's been drinking Mimosas all afternoon with the book club she actually can't stand to be in, giving her 5,000 dollars and bidding her au revoir handing her a map of old video stores to peruse in hopes of suddenly becoming a hipster. Basically you'll never see your car again because she gave it to a ukulele player she met during her tour of the video stores you sent her on.
Sitting down and telling a stranger, I trust you is a bit batty.... or is it?! No!!!! It totally isn't if the Artist gets to really know their guest happily sitting there waiting for you to create MAGIC upon their mane! This Look was created with an understanding of my guests' inner workings. I knew it had to have punch, move and render people fascinated. So I created a "breathing painting". As a child I examined paintings from the corners looking across and underneath, always intrigued how light placement changed the colour on a flat surface. Now as an adult I still stare at not only paintings but life from a different angle, and have the privilege of having found an occupation I thrive in as an Artist because of my awkward stare."
