Biography
The inspiration guiding my artistic creation lies in an intimate relationship between nature and spirituality. The basic elements of my compositions are subtly evoked, leaving ample room for interpretation and a multitude of visions.
The contrasts of warm and cool are an essential part of the experimentation in my work. The use of brushes and palette knives, washes and scraping, layering and transparencies are all means of forming a matrix for exploring the subject matter. The passion conveyed is embodied in intuitive movement, subjective shading, and the synergy of colors. Forms are sometimes simplified to create visual and aesthetic homogeneity.
Nature in its simplest forms offers me a range of tones: ochres, blues, oranges, and whites, allowing me to extract their essence and use them in both primitive and contemporary visuals. All these processes lend a unique character to my research and its presentation.
