Statement "At the moment, I consider myself a post-pollution visual enthusiast delivering contemporary thoughts with ties to surrealism and traditional painting. I'd like to annex out into experimental techniques, and send future visual communications in a meticulous sans brush faction. My artwork is for those that have a mind for the fractal. My Religion was shifted upon my experience whilst at a Technical College. Although I'm not a Communist, I believe the Chinese and Native Americans had it right thousands of years ago. There cannot be energy without a difference of potential, meaning, no flow without a positive and negative terminal in a circuit. I believe an electronic circuit is a microcosm or fractal of the entire universe. That to me, is a genius discovery by Humans. Most of the credit should go to Tesla, and Chinese Philosophy. My true fractal art is coming. There has already been doses of evidence in my pastoral shit." Born April 20, 1972, Rich began oil painting in 2000 and first exhibited in 2002. " About Half of my visual artwork are derivatives; the other half are other things..." Influences and things new to me I like: Mumford & Sons, Gogol Bordello, Antimatter...
