My art is a primal function of my intellect.
Artist Statement
Creativity, regardless of the form, is a primal function of man's intellect.
Ideally, instinctual manipulation of media should be the only force behind creation, much like the instinctive force behind birth, death, procreation and survival.
But we think.
We labor to make sense of the world and of all the schemes of living things and nature.
I think we labor too hard.
Artist Bio
Micheal Jones is a native Oklahoma artist.
