Artist Statement:
Over the past 18 years my work evolved in many different directions. I utilized a great variety of styles.
All these brought me closer to abstract, the only way of expressing
my spirit more fully than traditional art styles encourage.
The images given to me in my art embody my state of being.
They represent a world where spirit, mind and body are one unity. Through my paintings I express my inner world, perceptions, philosophies, dreams and fantasies, sometimes realistically and sometimes symbolically.
My sources of inspiration are the feelings, fears and hopes shared
by all human beings.
Strong lines are a manifestation of my influence from iconography, an ancient art form focused on the human face.
Vibrant colors reflect my current mood but they are also memories of the images of my youth under the Mediterranean sun.
My recent work spans a broad range of feelings and states of mind.
I certainly hope that my art will enlighten the viewer’s spirit and bring hope and beauty to make life a worthwhile experience.
