Artist Statement -



We’re all affected by what we see around us, by our experience and also by our moods.
My great source of inspiration comes from nature and colors.
Through the observation of it, the memory of it, and my imagination of it, nature inspires me.

When I look around at the moods and seasons of nature, I feel similarities to the changes in the journey of my life.
Our life contains energetic, happy, joyful but also sad, hopeless and fearful moments.
When the weather and seasons change, they are like the swing of my feelings, emotions and moods.
I express all these changes with different colors which inspire me.
I don’t paint what I see.
I paint what I feel.
It’s not ordinary landscape. It’s imaginary landscape.
Each scene calls forth a technique that uniquely fits it.
Nature is showing me my life.
As I recreate it, I am renewed.
I imagine the scene and pick the color I feel like using and start painting.
While I paint, I forget unnecessary thoughts and worries and thereby I heal myself.
The colors and techniques which make up my own new world depend on my mood and feeling at that moment.

As an artist, I hope that my art work can be enjoyable, heartwarming and relaxing for my viewers.
