ARTIST STATEMENT

My art is my lover, my life, my purpose. The inspiration for my projects comes from different sources. I am fascinated by the infinitive number of forms of life. I like to observe nature. Often something as simple as single tulip flower or a leaf targets my mind and transforms to a new visual idea. I am captivated by the universe and its secrets. Images of macro and micro worlds that are hidden to human eyes which revolve “the unseen” thru lenses of telescopes or microscopes convert in my mind to original ideas and show me unlimited possibilities of creations. I am mesmerized by “the untraceable”. I believe in unbelievable.

I am attracted by an extreme scale and form changes. I am interested in the transformation of micro-objects to macro images and macro objects to micro images. I worship playing with abstract forms hidden within other shapes and experimenting with layers of colors.

Paintery monotype is a medium of my first choice. It allows for play and the experimentation, unexpected effects, and occasionally even accidents. I work wholeheartedly and freely. I apply the least amount of control I am able to impose, as when I try to force anything, the process becomes a struggle. I know my work goes well when my being becomes filled with “the state of here and now” allowing the creative force to work thru me.

It is my hope that by focusing on portraying “the invisible”, my art will open the doors of inner and outer worlds to the viewers. I wish that my work will inspire them to look even deeper inside and farther away, so they become totally aware of the invisible greatness that resides within them and around them. I trust that by doing and sharing my art with others I share my vision of the world full of love, happiness and “the imperceptible”.
