I have always been seeking the truth, since a child. I would ask questions like "What does it mean to be a human being? where did we come from? where was I before I was born? I had a vivid concept of space and other realities, and would often visualize them so much I would practically be there more than here.

In middle school I really started to call to question where we came from, and started putting together the great ideologies of all religions and cultures, present and past.

When I turned 16, my art had developed pretty well. Form and shading were excellent for me. However the subject of my art was sometimes negative. That changed for me when I was introduced to the burning leaf of green, and then the diviners mint. I seen things that explained my questions, and my mind was propelled, my art work blossomed over the next few months from bland black and white creatures on 8x10 paper, to large colorful works representing spiritual transformation, and the idea we are all parts of Gods mind.

I want people to open their minds. I want them to WANT the world to change. I want them to perform random acts of kindness, and when asked "How can I repay you", they say, "No, you will not pay me back, but pay it forward". And so a chain reaction will happen. I want people to see how much the microcosm reflects the macrocosm, as our bodies a built by tiny living organisms called cells, some rush through veins to get places and perform specific tasks, just as we rush in our cars through veiny roads to do the same. Yes, the part contains the whole and the whole contains the part. We are one within this super hologram.

I want to touch you with my art, I want you to SEE that we are one, and as one, we are an infant, its collective mind developing as we extend the internet across the world, as technology brings us to the threshold of what is real and illusory.

And ask, what are we growing into. When will we cut this umbilical cord of greed power and hatred, and let the Earth give us back to the stars from whence we came, only this time, not as star dust, but as they eyes of the universe, just beginning to awaken. Just beginning to explore itself.

Awaken.

I want to encourage us to perform random acts of kindness, and make it known to PAY IT FORWARD! I want us to do what we can to stomp out corruption (see ran.org) and no matter what be down to Earth and kind. To realize that if we can truly believe, we are boundless. Quantum Physics has proved that our minds have a vast relationship with this universe, as just a thought alone can change whether an electron behaves as a wave or a particle. Realize we are all connected, to all things. And that there are extraordinary things all around us we cannot yet see, because we are not ready to, because we simply do not yet believe.

BELIEVE.

Think about it, the smallest peices of so called matter came together to form the complicated structures of the atom, and the atoms came together and formed something yet more complicated, molecules that at our scale make up different textures and densities, from rock formations, to water, to live reproducing things like our DNA. Then those molecules decided to come together, yet again, to Create single celled organisms, and they too united to form all the living things around us.

Now think about this. People. Like there are billions of cells in our body.. there are billions of us in our civilization. As I mentioned already, cells rush through our veins to get to areas of the body to perform certain tasks, as do we, rushing in our cars through veiny roads. We have central organs, we have grocery stores, industrial facilities etc. Neurons in our brains stretched across to connect and instantly send information from one area to the next. We stretched lan lines across and now we are developing the internet, a global subconscious mind of the human collective. We are like a developing fetus.

The question.

What are we going to transform into?

I believe the entire universe itself, including its extra dimensions and ours, are all parts of an entire ocean of pure consciousness. A mind in essence.. and what that proposes for us, is that we are the eyes of the universe.. just beginning to awaken, just beginning to explore and learn.

Now don't let anyone make fun of you for miss-spelling, or talking about theories, revelations or prophecies. Just keep researching, and watching and reading things you can learn from.
I recommend checking out the book, "The Holographic Universe" by Michael Talbot, as well as the video "What the Bleep do we Know?

Never stop searching for answers, never hesitate to enlighten someone else with your knowledge learned. Good luck in your quest.
