abstract painter Inspired by the stimulation of the five senses, I dive into my self, and paint works along with the release of my inner world and senses. Instead of trying to understand an event with your head, feel and accept it with your whole body, and paint it as a painting. By doing so, I hope to be able to interact with and communicate with the inner sensitivities of those looking at the work.
