"the founder of the Sacred Arts Society, a group of artists formed to reinvent the Dada and Flux art movements of the 20's and 70's."

"Eve reates a world of raw vision, touching the pain and splendor of life. Colors become symbols of certain aspects of existence. Yellow whispers both the glory of morning and the erotic passion from the night before. Red the life force and burning fire of illusion, disilusion and passion. Blue the dream, the somber silence of our inner being and robust guilt of a fatigued human race. Drugs, sex, religion, death, life, and hypocrisy are all central themes of his paintings.. Quentin Tarantino, Madonna, quincy Jones, Prince, and Seal are some of his most adamant supporters and collectors. his works have exhibited Bergamot Station, Don O'Melvany Gallery, and Rico Gallery, Inc."

THE LIFE OF A PAINTER

Plunging headlong into life, the young artist virtually invented Himself during his homeless travels across Europe. Conspicuous not only in his remarkable talent for painting but also in the eccentricity of his dress and the wildness of his behavior, life came to symbolize the freewheeling spirit of the rebel artist.

He is one artist for whom travel would prove to be a great liberator; Europe and its people became his canvas. This artist's rejection of conventional taste was founded in an almost physical revulsion for the stultifying world of the Midwest for which he grew up. The sense of claustrophobia in class, color and traditional religion was his mortuary. Born in the spring of 1963, son of a Cherokee Indian, gypsy, and traveling musician father. His mother one of 18 brothers and sister, and in his words, the cement plantation worker for General Motors. "My mother worked very hard to keep food on the table and to make sure we looked respectful in church, there were nine uncles and six aunts, most were ministers, I had no escape from God." Even after the loss of faith in format religion, his temperamental inclination for ecstasy lent fervent expression to his art that beauty was a quality both supernatural and eternal.

Whether expressing his thoughts on canvas or the wood that he brings to life, artifacts that have lain dormant in the gutter of a greed-ridden society. He recycles his materials, wood blocks, plain brown paper bags, 200-year-old canvas stripped from walls. He has created a world of raw vision to touch in us the pain and splendor of life. Drugs, sex, religion, hypocrisy, philosophy, life, death and religions scrolls of saint like monsters are all subjects of his experienced journey. The paintings are a voice; yellow whispers both the glory of morning and the erotic passion from the night before. Red, the life force and burning tire of illusion, disillusion and passion. Blue, the dream, the somber silence of our inner being and robust guilt of a fatigued human race. Green, the livestock of our nature, the denial of war, the worship of woman. Black, the void of mystery, the balance and depth of surrender. White, the light of unsaintly sacred space. Orange, the breath of tomorrow, the hand of contentment. Gold, the self-exhaulted nature of ones future.

"When I was a child my best friend was the fresh young pine tree that towered over my imagination, so natures influence appeared to force my creativity to submerge in it‘s image. As a humanitarian we must embody the human spirit of nature and reach the beginning of life like the vision of a child. I see these beginnings and I must give back to nature. My work speaks of a world of hope and the dangers of mankind to excommunicate or declare war on it self, yet there is a garden in my mind and towering above disbelief my imagination brings life to Me, to serve humanity, to serve nature, to resurrect beauty to our vision. This is my life."

"We are a breed, the artist, I don't do anything that hasn't been done as an artist I'm channeling the breath of our time."
