Random Thoughts..
This is to express, the random acts that have been taking place around us, the uncertain future, the chaos that the world is in. Paintings combine words and images that are sometimes hard to comprehend in a coherent manner.Words not heard, feelings discarded and faces remain in shadows.

Composition, color and the unconscious mind are key components of my work. I use all these elements to convey my perception of the relationship between myself and my surroundings. The biggest challenge I encounter when working is to successfully bring to life what I see and feel with my mind’s eye.
This challenge leads me on a journey towards an infinite process of learning and experimenting with different types of medium and subject matter.
I choose my medium according to its success in conveying my vision.
Through this process of learning and experimenting, I try to keep my work honest and fresh.

The paintings exhibit a significant level of color saturation,
dominating the surface plane of the canvas, and denoting emotive tenor. There exists an abundance of verve, and a spontaneous exuberance for the medium that is captivating and visually compelling. Wonderful work.
