    "What I am looking to do as an artist is to express my voice, and since my work is representational in nature but still very eclectic,  I like to experiment with different mediums and styles.  As people we are fluid, dynamic, ever changing.  My art will change because I will change.   Ultimately I believe that whatever creative expression you give to the world -- it is, and can only be, a reflection of yourself." - Jim Minet
