Artist Statement:
After trying several painting
and photography techniques, I
chose watercolour as the main
media of expression of
feelings, sensations and
thoughts.
The paintings always start
with small dots of water and
colour and through the
interaction of both the
paintings are born. All the
things lost and lock in my
memory, feelings and thoughts,
images, landscapes, places,
people and situations, appear
between, the fields of colour,
the lines, the forms and
become alive.
I found, working with
watercolours, my inner self.
Watercolours were chosen as my
main technique cause, with
then and with small pieces of
paper, I express myself
totally. I no longer fell the
pressure and the need, I felt
before, of working on large
canvas and I feel free to do
whatever it comes to my mind.
So the result of these last
years of work is those
paintings full of light,
colour, life and movement. I
found myself as a painter....
