In all my travels and experiences the one thing i learned is that in matters of life, the HEART is the only pure way to express. When we use our heart the intended subject will feel this in a more positive and genuine way. This will also reinforce the strength of your SPIRIT and ultimately heal your SOUL.
CARPEDIEM seems to describe my mentality most of the time. I enjoy a challenge and work hard to reach the heights of my abilities. If i do not put in an honest days work that meet my expectations of myself i can feel less satisfied with myself. But 99% of the time i take life with faith and hope and try my best to help others and embrace my blessings. In terms of my credentials i am a certified therapist, writer, artist, inventor, designer, and financial advisor. If you truly want to get to know me better just send me an email and i respond to everyone. Thanks for the interest and i wish you much success and happiness! Blessings to you, Justin
My philosophy on life has changed quite a bit over the years as i get older. I feel the real purpose of existence is to inspire, help, and support others in the best way you know how. Speaking of support, if you ever need anything if you are reading this you can count on me to do my best to help you. I get more pleasure from giving to others less fortunate or in need than i do producing a new work of art, which is saying a lot, since nothing can replace the immense love and connection to the universe i get when creating.
About My Art Style & Approach
My approach, which i termed Unificationism involves the arrangement of color, form, shape, and the involvement of positive and negative contours within the overall composition. When we look at the world from a distance from space, we would conclude from our observations that our world is a complex dynamic of movement, color, shape, and the interaction of all these into one harmonic flow. I approach my works in much the same manner, taking and absorbing everyday life and then subjecting all the complexities and interactions of these object, sounds, and colors, to a universal analysis. I then begin to break down these forms and colors into dynamic relationships within the composition, forming a harmonic flow between these elements generating my approach.
The Inception of Project Genesis
The Genesis Collection for the new Millenium began one night as i was working on my 500 page chess book. I had this revelation of 12 collections of work based around 12 themes of life. I decided to sit down and write down from my point of view what the twelve collections should be as the foundation of this giant collection. I decided on the game of chess, human anatomy, mind, spirit, scientific abstracts, ocean, and the cosmos as the first seven collections. The whole idea of this body of work is to take each important theme of life and dissect and analyze each element within each particular theme and relate it to the creation of life and universe at the very beginnings.

The one constant passion that keeps my spirit blooming is the thought of the women in my life and those i have yet to meet. I consider myself a lucky man to be able to experience the love from a woman and to have loved those in the past and present.
Throughout my life spending time with women has made me a better man. They are always there to instill their experiences and wisdom from their point of view into the premise of life and to support my dreams, goals, and ambitions. If i stumble or do something wrong they are quick to be there like an angel with open arms to assist me and guide me back on track. I owe so much to women and the women who have been through my life helping me and driving me to be the best possible man i can be.
