Artist Info
"In truly creative pursuits there is no 'right,' or 'wrong,' there is only self expression,
which is the highest form of personal freedom!" Christopher Mathie, 2009
I see my paintings as dream like states, somewhere between reality and the more interesting abstract reality of my imagination. I try to allow pieces to emerge from my subconscious as I explore my emotions delving into both the light side and dark side of my personality.
Having some idea in my mind what the pieces are about helps me to explore emotions and feelings while I paint. I do not worry about having concrete meanings, because I intend the meanings to be as abstract as the paintings themselves. This also allows the viewer to bring their own experiences and interpretations to the work.
