Artist Comments:
The abstract paintings are an attempt to balance the 3 dimensional effect usually created by landscape
paintings and typical abstract paintings depicting a surface. The shapes and colors evoke a precisely
presented space even though it’s all fuzzy. They are painted emotionally.
The portraits are entities.The word entity denotes something being. Personifying real people on one
hand they represent conditions, situations and identities. They therefore address ideology and culture.
