Artist statement
My art is an expression of my spirit to the spirit of others that connect with it.
I seek to create a memory, a wish, a fantasy or moment of joy or peace in the soul of the viewer.
I pursue ideas, color combinations or images that attract my attention and paint them as an impression;
or abstraction and some paintings are just for the fun of presenting something in an unusual manner.
In addition, I enjoy drawing and painting the human figure, including people doing spontaneous daily activities. I am also amazed by different and unique cultures and architectures, which I like to capture in my art work.
Acrylic and pastels are my favorite mediums, I like the freshness of pastels, it helps to keep my work light and simple.
