Comments of the artist:
I like to paint the human body in an abstract form. A modernistic approach in handling my medium gives me more freedom of expression. My subject gives me endless opportunities to create new compositions and helps me to bring out all the beauty which the body represents. The ultimate form of creation, of life force and energy. |
