Artist Statement
My artwork is spontaneous it is based on my mood and emotions. When I work I lose the sense of sadness, but I have realized that I unconsciously put some of my sadness into my art. I love experimenting with all styles of art I prefer not to have only one kind of style, although I try to put my own touches on each style. My painting just goes on I don’t allow my brain or my conscious thought to interrupt the flow. My fields of interest encompass drawings, paintings, graphics, interiors, and photography and write stories.
I love to create abstract work because abstract work shows your personality and your thinking and how do you see things through your art. I see my art as creating an adventure for the viewer; I want them to go on a journey that searches for the meaning of my work. Abstract art does not have limits and I love going beyond limits. I love mysterious art and I like it when people take the time while they are looking at my work to really think about what I did, what was my idea and why I did it and the beauty of my art, just like the artist Georgia O’Keefe, she paints the beauty and the small details of flowers to give a chance for busy people to have a close look at the beauty of nature.
I enjoy a spontaneous work process because by being spontaneous I can fit in more and express my feelings. My idea begins with one thought and then develops into an artwork, and if I am confused I try out some sketches to light me up and inspire me to go on with my art.
