Artist Statement
Art for me is a subtle form of expression. A vision that makes intangible appear tangible, makes complex subjects seem simple, practical and adaptable. Owing to my conviction to portraying the suggestive, my art has always been thematic and message-oriented. Through my humble efforts, I try to delineate metaphorically, the non-obvious and allusive.
