My Sanctuary

I am a Native American paint artist originally from the Midwest region of the U.S. who currently resides in Atlanta, GA. I express my artistic visions on heavy duck woven cotton fabric canvases. I approach every project with the mindset to create a piece that is completely different  than the previous. Creating is beyond self rewarding as well as interesting because I continuously learn from what others see without blocking myself into my own interpretation. I often incorporate silhouettes in my portals because I enjoy forcing the viewer to use their creative mind as well. Silhouettes are ageless, non-gender specific and of any ethnicity. Energy is the universal language that I attempt to relay through colors in describing who they are and what they are experiencing. 

I view abstract art as a timeless form of communication between the past, present and future without the distraction of words. Language that is written and spoken today can be forgotten tomorrow. Art never changes, it has the ability to inspire, birth and rebirth with a “non-expiration date”.  Worlds can be created through colors, textures and images that only a chosen few are able to appreciate. I am convinced that images communicate subject, texture relay emotion and creativeness lures in curiosity/ attention. The past is life's boot camp and the future belongs to our imagination. Let's create new realities with our imagination. I hope that you enjoy my portals and be sure to stop by often - I am always creating. JG
