I’ve had this domain since 2009; originally for my graduating portfolio and, for the next decade, as a professional reference.  However, as I get older, my earlier creative output seems more and more vital; so here it is, trapped in digital amber. I’ve always struggled with the concept of mastery over one’s craft – technical precision vs. freedom to explore.  Of course I wanted to be an amazing artist and gifted musician.  Yet I’ve noticed that the more unsophisticated my approach, even after years of schooling or self taught experimentation, the more original the results.  Over the years I’ve judged my creativity harshly as being imperfect.  But the more time passes, the more I see the transpersonal beauty and unique resonance in that imperfection.  It’s evocatively primitive.  Echoes of early evolutionary strategies on the fringes of suburban wilderness.  Attempts to make sense of the weird journey of my life.
