ARTIST STATEMENT
Painting is my passion and are inspired by the simplicity and beauty of nature surround me, with beautiful forest colors, the valley with different flowers, the air that you can feel it when it is touching you and murmuring melodies in your ears like a fresh rainy day. You can see also clouds dancing in the sky, as well as listening to the wind's musical rhythms. You can find shapes, colors and moments of weather and drama. My goal is to attempt to express something more than the landscape, seascape or abstract. I want to express freedom, peace, serenity and memories of those simple and traditional things.
