Visual Art – Denver

I\'ve lived most of my life on a skateboard...in a yoga pose, tapping a drum with my big toe, juggling a guitar, paints, and markers in one hand, and writing poetry with the other. Growing up in Nebraska, I was surrounded by a small group of friends, who would spend countless hours playing music, reading and writing poetry, and painting or drawing until the early morning. Everything revolved around skateboarding, music, and art. Artistic expression is one of the healthiest ways to express our creative energy. On any given day, I\'ll be writing songs in my head or walking down the street, finding endless opportunities to capture art through photography and film… there\'s potential for creative expression everywhere, all the time, we just have to channel that creative energy. I enjoy making connections with different people wherever I am. I see art, in all forms, as a way of cutting out some of the small talk, and exploring the more intimate soul connections we all share. Thanks for reading, stay awesome! -Nathan M Bockus
