Lightning Hands is a OneArt prayer. Right and left hands are painted center stage in bright and bold colors, which glow outward from the finger tips.

Lightning Hands is a OneArt prayer. Right and left hands are painted center stage in bright and bold colors, which glow outward from the finger tips.
There is an Apache proverb that states: It is better to have less thunder in the mouth, and more lightning in the hands. Vibrant, multicolored hands are painted supercharged. They glow into action, energized with clear intent, combined with the determination of spiritual purpose. We must place our beliefs into meaningful actions, and not into useless talk. DON'T JUST SIT THERE! BE SOMEONE SPECIAL!

Artist Biography 

My work is known as OneArt. I am the 'father' of this Art Movement.  It's fundamentals are: Life is a unique balance of energy, and this energy moves. We touch Love through It's exchanges, and God through sharing. 

Trees, flowers, you, me, even the very air we breathe are made up of the same energy - with each identifiable by moving at different speeds. We are energy and so is our Universe.  We radiate our very own unique energy signatures, and the special part of all of this is that each of us affects and thus is affected by Life's balance of energy through our expressing and receiving Love. I get to paint this. Art,then, must evolve and concern itself with the interconnectedness and interdependence of all life, and with the exchanges of Love which elevate us all to be One  - thus OneArt.

Education

I am a professional self taught Artist.

Exhibitions

I have only exhibited three times: 1 in St.Louis, USA, 1 in Paris, France, and 1 in Rome, Italy.. I don't feel comfortable with exhibitions  of my work.

Awards

(NO AWARDS OR ACHIEVEMENTS OTHER THAN MY WORK)

For an Artist, the real competition is internal. Yet, I do understand our society thrives on creating measuring sticks. Since history has never been written by loosers, society likes to move those sticks to suit itself. The perception of winning is important to some people. It is not for me. I measure achievements through my works:

. 'Child Of Himself'. It was good enough to sign, and in 2008, even after never having exhibited my works, was appraised on its own merit, with no Artist hype, for $1.8M USD.

. 'Sammie in Pink', a portrait of my wife Samatherith, and 'Young Girl Wearing A Golden Necklace', a portrait of my youngest child, Jasmine.

. 'So He Is', Proverb 23:7, a first OneArt Color Translation. 'For as he thinks within himself, so he is.' 

. 'Air On A Sunny Day'. This work stands as my inspiration to create a series of works on Air.

. 'Helen', as a commissioned work. I personally delivered  this work to a collector, and now close friend. Impactfully demonstrates we are one in Nature.

Collections

I am in private collections in the USA, Europe, South East Asia, and in Indonesia. All sales have been private, and while each has been documented and provenance managed by my estate, no public acknowledgement can nor ever will be made available. 

I paint landscapes. I paint portraits,  and yes I paint nudes, and pets, and flowers.

I know, now, that it is time for OneArt. It is exciting to me that my works, themselves, radiate an energy of their own. Their energy signatures are unique. I believe this is how we differentiate good works from great works. Picasso once said: When Art is fully understood, it will cure a toothache'. Art is more than just something beautiful to hang on a wall. It can heal. Art can make us think, feel, and yes even laugh or cry. PINCH ME - I GET TO PAINT THIS. Let's get together! Connect with me! Perhaps add a work or two to your collection! Thank you.
