An aficionado of the arts, Spencer's talent is not limited to merely that of his first canvas, the stage. His artistry has transcended to his second stage, the actual canvas. His artwork speaks volumes to all who experience his passion. Working with acrylics, oils and spray paint have proven to be pivotal to his development as a visual artist. As with his choreography, Spencer draws inspiration from limitless possibilities, as well as, boundaries. To bring curiosity, to cause wonderment and to provoke different thought – is his arts’ purpose. To share his love, his voice and his interpretation of the world, is ultimately what he wishes to reveal. Through his life experiences as a dancer, Spencer has found infinite inspiration from time shared with other dancers, choreographers and directors. "We dance to actively engage, and inspire the audience's mental perspective, to grow and evolve. The art of dance is primal, universal and can be voiced through an unlimited amount of movement. . . Infinite Movement Ever Evolving." S.G. Hering
