Artist Statement

I never felt compelled to copy nature. I want to paint the essence of life and explore free expression to follow my intuitive instincts. My inspirations are drawn from philosophy, life experiences and the environment around me.
These three images attached are an experiment of a visit with Picasso, a collage with tissue-paper, watercolour and India ink. Just a fun time to loosen.
