James Wodarek

When painting, Wodarek experiences an internal balance and harmony. The process of creating art is much like a process of self-discovery. All of his influences, every defining moment in his life becomes part of that process. The work Wodarek creates is a record of that time, that perfect moment of balance in which he is the closest to the essence of who he truly is in this life. External characteristics and stereotypes are replaced by ideals and passion. The process of creating art is the purest form of communication because it comes directly from the soul. For Wodarek, this is something that transcends geography, social classes, finances or other earthly boundaries.
