"I see my journey in Art as a continued source of pleasure and self expression.  My goal is that others can see in my work what is unique in my perceptions of inner and outer reality.  I also wish to connect to what is spiritual and universal in our collective human experience."

Soares has dedicated himself  to becoming fluent in the distinctive pottery styles of  tribes throughout the Southwest, which is why he’s a sought-after instructor for Native students who want to learn the art form. The Heard Museum in Phoenix, for instance, hosted a weeklong master artist workshop with Soares for the Colorado River Indian Tribes. He currently teaches in the Native American Arts Program at Idyllwild Arts Academy.
