My
work is all about responses, a visualization of my life both as
an artist and a writer. I try to express in a painting what I
write in paper. It has been a journey inwards, to my core, where
my feelings and poems integrate with canvas. Sometimes it’s daunting
to confront the empty canvas. I derive comfort from playing with
colors. My abstractions are a continuous adventure of color and
figures. A search for a meaning that bring together my childhood
to adulthood. Color is a state of mind.
