Artist’s Statement:
“Painting is a conscious attempt to unravel, through visualization and introspection the essential elements of significance to one’s life... I try to catch a glimpse beneath my own veneer of consciousness from which to construct a personal hypothesis of reality. One can only hope that the resulting work might resonate with the viewer.
