I began ambidextrous writing and painting
to marry the unconscious and conscious as one.
Developing my style, these figures were birthed.
With repetition and patterns,
each appeared truly unique,
just like people we meet.
They are you, they're me.
They are who you want them to be.
People all around us and inside our minds.
Storytellers of the divine.
Viewers continuously called them "cool."
Ergo, The Cool People took the rule.

since 2014, I've been evolving The Cool People from expressionistic figure into sharper surrealist images. Their origin is rooted by emotion.
As an ambidextrous artist, my right hand forms the technical structure and the left hand contributes the organic movement. Just like with people, you can't plan how they will unfold. And not one person is identical.
Original process. This video clip is one of the first moments of creation of The Cool People.
Two hand jam! What life they bring when The Cool People come together. The burst of unified movement showcases the power to the people. When we all move together, we rise up for what's right. They speak when I can't seem to find words.
Canvas to walls. The upward pattern work of The Cool People translates gorgeously in interior design. Since 2019, I've decorated countless walls with this aesthetic.

The Cool People are storytellers and truth speakers. Ambidextrous painting gives me a freedom to paint with my unconscious and conscious, hand in hand. When I paint openly, they can answer my questions and school me with insightful reflection. They visualize my inner dialogue.
Evolution of Meaning. As surrealist motifs, The Cool People have developed a strong symbolism and inner voice, translating into fine art seamlessly.
