·        Artists Statement: As full time contemporary artists we have been profoundly influenced by our worldly travels viewing art works within more than 300 art galleries and museum spanning back forty years. The work we are creating today are reflections of all those experiences, keeping that in mind I feel our true art roots start and fall into a style called pure psychic automatism, constituting a significant artistic record of our personal psychic forces with total control to express our freedom.
