Artist Statement:
I believe that before anything
art should bring happiness to
the viewer . Life has alot of
misery in it , so it is the
artist duty to make people
happy .
Secondly , I believe that an
artist must have his own
unique style which I feel
should differentiate him
totally from another artist .
In my view , I would even say
a particular style is more
important than what and how
an artist paints . His style
has to be so strong that the
viewer should immedietly
recognize the artist ....
