Waiting in Anticipation - Sold Print

Trained as a Graphic Designer, my artistic journey has been that of an explorer. Often enjoying an "explosion" of colours, I find working with a limited palette equally thrilling. Multidimensional aspect of the human form continuously fascinates me hence my relentless quest to represent it in the various mediums I work in. Deconstruction of forms as I built up my collages is totally consuming as I work my way through composition, colour, form and light. Portraits, figurative art and landscapes are the themes I am currently painting. Since 1976 I have exhibited in group and solo shows in United Kingdom, USA, Canada, Pakistan and Dubai and awarded for portraiture and abstract paintings, namely 2003 Open International Portrait Competition in Toronto. In 2004 I moved to Kelowna after a 13 year stay in Dubai. As an art educator for over 25 years, I had the honour of receiving the Art Educator Award for the Okanagan Arts Awards 2009. Member of several art associations, currently I am serving as the president of Livessence, Figurative Art Society, Kelowna, BC.
