My new piece, Seven Serpents, was made with the intention of having a rather interpretable subject and thus, can mean a variety of things depending on the viewer and their background...All part of my goal to create meaningful artwork for an ever-more-universal world.
Even more, that dual meaning can help inform those of us that tend not to venture out of our own cultural comfort zone...learn about serpent symbolism below...and then take another good look at my most recent piece...

The viewer often expects a piece of art to tell them story...I'd rather be involved along the way.
If you ever have questions about a specific piece or my work in general, shoot me a message and I can lead you to some sites to learn about the inspiration and possible avenues of understanding.
