Artist Statement
Art has always been a passion of mine. I love the many facets I can explore in the Sumi, Collage and Mixed Media areas of the Art domain. When I am painting I try to infuse my personal energy, spirituality and inspiration into my art. My inspiration may come from something I’ve seen, heard or felt. Abstract paintings and collages are my favorite areas, because of my love of texture, handmade papers and found objects that can be incorporated into a piece of art. I enjoy using Sumi ink in traditional Asian paintings and also I find it interesting to find new ways and methods to mix this ancient medium with other mediums.
