"An important artistic concern of mine is the appropriation and comprehension of art to the masses. I feel art should speak to a broad expanse of people rather than only to the sophisticated individuals that are educated in the dialect.  Classical art has a wide scope of comprehension compared to the explicit way in which modern art is discoursed and extrapolated. "
