MICKENS

Welcome to the Mickens artwork webpages. My visual art questions the value of  the phenomena that surrounds us all day long and into our dreaming night:

​

Images!

​

With off-kilter pattern forms, divergent  color palettes, rusted scribbled textures, and sarcastic lines trying to mindlessly and hopefully purely to evoke- something that engages.

Intended as a door intentionally left open. The biases, and the dreams of the viewer will poison, or enhance the perception. Add any word to the image, and the ever seeking wheels of our human condition work overtime  seeking a meaning. Maybe in the form of a chuckle, a buzz, a sneeze, a story about a nun in the third grade, or a severe reaction of contempt.
