About Christofer Charles
Artist Statement
Why and what I paint, at this point, is more of an evolving process then a solid statement. However, that is not to say that there are not consistencies in this evolution. In my mind I see three consistent concepts or mind states that are the foundation of my work. These concepts can be broken down into three categories: application process, artistic philosophy, and my life philosophy.
