Artist Statement
“As a surrealist I use the element of design to weave compositions based on my dreams, visions and imagination. My paintings chronicle my life's journey. In short my art is a way of keeping a diary. I paint objects as I think of them, not necessarily as I see them. My imagination is the highest kite I can fly.” |
