| Artist's Statement: | |
| Painting is my passion, since I discover how wonderful feeling it is to be creative the bright and bold colors seems to attract me like honey on the bees.How mixing it create an excitement that’s hard to explain. Is like a dance between my color palette and my brush.And the dance floor is my canvas.Nature is my favorite subject specially the flower.The soft fragile and bright colors of the flower awaken the sleeping artist within me. I’m enchanted to the beauty of the emerald color of the forest.And I want to explore them all.Since I can’t possibly do that.I can explore them only through my canvas. | |
