ARTIST STATEMENT:
Our life is a work in process, a spiritual journey. To me, art is a way of expressing the inexpressible. Through my art I would like to share this wonder of our existence Mystical stories. like to have emotions simulate what I paint rather than a particular visual image ,My work is predominantly figurative and representational. Places in my life; and those I saw in my dreams, these visuals highlight positive image and inner beauty of Grace. Focusing on hidden powers and potential . My spirit for the search of true love responsibilities as active member of our society .As I evolve as an artist, I always ask to my self, What is Grace? What came first: our love for God or God's love for us? I have gravitated towards abstraction and painting intuitively. Colors and beyond is how I would simply describe my work. I get inspiration from life itself, my spiritual journey, reading and meditating, but then I have to put everything aside. Somewhere between abstract and realistic expression, my artwork is an opportunity to consolidate the inner and outer worlds. Like a mirror, the outer journey seems to reflect an inner journey.
