Artist Statement
“Painting is a relic of a journey made. In fact, the painting is both the vehicle and the idea. Through painting, the discoveries are found, as well as premeditated. Aesthetics is the least important, but somehow becomes the means of finalization. What I Find in the end is just pure authenticity.”
