The Art of Bruce McKamey
Artistic Bio
Bruce left school and the normal social standards of living to pursue his
passions. He has undergone resistance and suffering in order to follow his
path. This path of art and self-seeking has taken him through many changes of
development. His current work is the culmination of a lifetime of self-seeking
and self-teaching. He has never read an art book or had an art teacher.
He began to draw at a young age, exercising his talent on Snoopy upon his
doghouse, his favorite subject matter at the time. As the years passed, his
passion for drawing grew. Bruce sees his art development and his
self-development as two sides of the same coin.
“As I develop spiritually and
mentally, so does my art.
Art
is a path of self-development as well as self expression.
So
is religion.”
Bruce intends his art is to capture the character of his subject, the
spirit of the subject. He believes that everything in this world is the
material expression of the Divine. The Divine is pure, but form modifies this
purity and distorts it, as well as expresses it in various ways. He believes
that the human being is the most pure expression of the Divine. The Divine
divides and reunites within the human. The human is the culmination point of the
diverse creation.
Bruce’s sutra or aphorism for art is:
“Purity of form is a
reflection of Divine intention.”
He feels that nowhere can that purity of form be better expressed and
captured than by children and the Native American Indian.
