As an emerging artist, my goal is to create artwork that is meaningful, powerful, influential, symbolic and will have an impact in the world. I approach my artwork like a reporter. I explore humanity through my thoughts, feelings, emotions, and from life experiences. I take what I have seen, heard, read about, or experienced and incorporate these elements expressively back into my art. It is about disclosing what is already known and also, the UNknown… “ I see colors, I see clearly, I drip and paint, passionately…” - Matthew C. Mark
