“Zain” was inspired by Key 6, The Lovers Card in the Tarot. At the crossroads of science and psychedelia, heart and mind, there is an emerging renaissance in which we are reconnecting with our sense of purpose and personal myth. “Zain” follows the arch of the individual looking for meaning, finding fragmentation from the underlying sense of separateness and finally finding home in the cosmos as one.

“Zain” was sold into private collection, but you can still learn more about this special piece, and those that are currently available, on my website. Link in bio.

Here’s wishing you a deep sense of connection and wholeness as you travel your personal myth. 🙏

🏔️ Life is full of twists and turns, but one thing’s for sure about mine: When I decided that my art mattered enough for me to build a life around the creative endeavor, I knew I’d never look back. It definitely hasn’t always been easy and there have been sacrifices and trade-offs that were tough. There still are.

🎨 But a life of meaning-making through the creative act is the only one for me! And I want to show my son that the life of his dreams is available to him if he’s willing to do the work, not always be comfortable, and trust that his contribution matters… because it does.

🙌 I want that for you too. That might not mean that you want a full time art career, but that you want to want to create meaningful art with impact. That the role and function of the true artist is alive in you.

🎆 Comment MASTERCLASS and I’ll share how to access my upcoming class on Awakening the Artist’s Vision and bringing it to life beautifully.

Artists: what’s the idea you can’t stop thinking about, even though you haven’t figured out how to make it yet?

You asked, so I’m doing things differently!

What if your art doesn’t just need a subject, but a world?

Worldbuilding isn’t about inventing an elaborate fantasy universe. It’s about discovering the inner logic, atmosphere, symbols, characters, and tensions that make your creative work feel like it belongs to somewhere.

In CCA, we approach worldbuilding as a way of going deeper into your own creative vision, so your ideas begin to feel less like isolated images and more like they’re part of something alive.

Your world is already in there. The work is learning how to see it.

Is it time to refocus on your creative goals?

If you’re ready to strengthen your fundamentals, refine your technique, and paint with more clarity and confidence, these courses are for you.

In my courses, Using Still Life as a Gateway to Creative Composition and Figure, Form, and Glow, I guide you through classical methodology step by step, focusing on structure, light, composition, and thoughtful design.

Learn to design compelling compositions and tell stories through your work, all while exploring the timeless beauty of still life.

Then, take your skills further by painting vibrant figures, mixing lifelike flesh tones, and achieving luminous effects through a structured, step-by-step approach rooted in classical methods.

Whether you are beginning anew or taking things to the next level, these courses are designed to help you build a solid foundation that lasts.
