Artist Statement:-

Born to Art

Live Art
Art is my way of expressing how I see the world. It is my purpose and my bliss.
I don't stick to one medium...my motto is "Any means to an end"...whatever works...whatever mood I'm in...
Creation is a process whereby you start and the universe draws your hand to conclusion. Beginning an artwork is trusting that you will finish it just the way it was intended by any means (medium) and in any way (style).
Art is very personal and universal appeal is unlikely...but for those who see the beauty, colour, joy and wonder in my art - you see what I'm about...
Art is something you can't take your eyes off...it is a reflection of the magnificence of life through the eyes of one soul.
