Statement

Automatic Art is by definition art which creates itself, it is a type of surrealism where Chance, the Subconscious, Free Association, and Poetry are instrumental in creating a painting or drawing. The artist is simply a medium between the idea and the canvas. This type of art begins with no preconceptions of the finished piece, but with subconscious, seminal ideas that take on a life of their own.
