      I have always believed that there’s beauty everywhere, if I can’t see it I keep looking. I’m a visual artist, conceptualising for so long in the workplace, I find the simplicity of just observing for creating art very calming. I do love graphic elements and sometimes they will come through in a painting.Even though my subject matter is mostly plants and people there is usually some philosophical element that made me paint it. I see the the concept of life in so many things and life itself is still a very wonderous affair. Art to me, creates windows in space and take us to places beyond our confinements.
