About my Art
I am a special observer. If the observation of the scene is objectively impossible, I recreate and paint it in my mind. I don’t want my paintings to be just for amusement but rather icons for deeper reflection and awareness.
“Most of what passes for legitimate entertainment is inferior or foolish and only caters to or exploits people’s weakness.” (Epictetus)
