I grew up in an artistic family, influenced by both, my mother and father. Their beauty and expressiveness in art inspired me and touched my heart. My father being a writer and mother being a singer grew my love for art in general. Paintings, colors and art in general became my passion to express my own art. My style has evolved from formal realism, using acrylic and oil paints to depict people and common object on a more painterly style using a wider array of colour.
Currently, my abstract painting consist of surreal imagery combined with musical compositional elements. I use mixed media acrylic and oil painting and find object to enhance the visual and textural aspects of my painting.I paint daily and involve myself various art related activity.
Finally I believe art to be a very powerful form of self expression. I like music, literature, historical research. Art offers boundless opportunities for creativity indeed, art represent the pinnacle of humanity.
