Artist Statement
Title: It’s time, can’t you hear it?
My name is Gavin Austin Meeler (named by my dad who wore grandpa pants with cheap blue hair dye watching WWE while I was born & on the way there listening to grunge 90s music. Decided I should be named after the lead singer from Bush “Gavin” & WWE wrestler Stone Cold Steve “Austin”)
I love to create in different mediums, from pencil to paper, digital, canvas paintings, to collages. I just love making art!
As a kid I was drawn to recreating stories through my own mind. I just felt it was something I needed to do to document my thoughts. My family said I had something special, but at the same time said I needed to be practical, which I ignored. I want to explore everything I can with this short or long life I may have.
I create in 2 ways one is creating subconsciously. In this way I don’t think, I just feel something and create. The other way is methodically plan it, where I both feel & think about the piece.
