Artistic Statement

​

There is a secret in my art only a collector of my art will know. It makes each piece unique. Impact the art creates is very important to me, as for many others as well. It took me years to understand the concept and meaning I want to embrace in each painting. I am a poet, an observer at the same time, trying to stay still in ever changing time and keep emotions intact.
