Aesthetic Commentary

Yes or No?

It is hard to look at the dark side of life: cruelty, poverty, psychosis. It is harder still if you simply leave the negatives unexamined. In an ironic way, to flourish takes critical knowledge. It gives you the freedom to sweep aside the muck on your path, and clears the way to be.

The following aesthetic commentaries take you on a journey through the positives and negatives facing artists and viewers. It is my hope that by sharing my understanding of these art practices with you, we can then share the experience of a fresh, bright path ahead.
