“My passion as an artist is to translate the language of my inner self into an imagery that symbolizes the real essence of our existence. I enjoy the power of line, which creates movement and depth. Layering of rich earthy colors- vivid yellows and browns, diverse textures and strong and subtle linear impressions on surface through my own created tools characterizes my work. My work appears investigations of the invisible world that lies beneath and within our own visible world. "
