Artist Statement

The world of painting gives a new dimension of being. Color and form transforms the reality, dreams, experiences and feelings into work filled with joy and satisfaction.

My original work was basically of realism and sub realism nature. These days I am doing abstract paintings in mixed media, acrylic and/or oil paints that suggest impressionist landscapes, water, mysticism and appreciation of nature’s greatness.
