anthony davis oils's Bio
A single thought. The a spark of an idea. The beginning of a creative process. Creation from emotion, emotion from experience. All of our lives are made up of individual perceptions of these emotions. There is a connection which we have to each other, a human connection that can be discovered in art. It is this connecion that I have with others through my paintings.
I begin with a basic feeling. In my mind images that tie into my personal emotional story are inescapable. Even the most simple pages of my mind are a catalyst for creativity. I use the images to create something that is a marker of a point in my life. There are specific ideas of my own tied into each painting, but it is not my intention to explain my life experiences or the origin of my thoughts to others. This is where the idea of a connection comes in. I want the viewer to feel a pull toward my work, a visual or an emotional link, based on their own life experiences. The impact of something you can relate to the instant it is seen is far more powerful than something requiring an explanation. I am influenced by everything, everyday experiences and objects alike. If something is worth thinking about, it is worth painting. As far as style goes, I am influenced by a several different areas. I have a visual connection to graffitti, and there is a strong graphic design element in my work. These disciplines, combined with my own personal style, create my art.
