My beliefs are truths that have been formed by a constant trickle of thoughts through my mind, depositing their positive, negative and indifferent impressions as they run through, like stalactites and stalagmites in your head, like roses with thorns.

What happens if the thorns prick me and I bleed. What am I bleeding? Despair, angst, hope, miraculous impossibilities?

About The Artwork

Step into the captivating world of "For Me to Live Is...", an extraordinary oil painting that takes viewers on a journey through the artist's intricate thoughts and emotions. This abstract masterpiece, pulsating with vibrant red and blue hues, showcases a mesmerizing interplay of swirling, organic brush strokes. Each stroke seems to emanate from the depths of the artist's psyche, symbolizing the constant flow of thoughts and beliefs that shape their reality. The painting's dynamic composition creates a sense of movement and energy, drawing observers into its enigmatic realm. As you immerse yourself in the artwork, you might find yourself entranced by the emotions it evokes and the questions it poses. The artist skillfully weaves together contrasting elements, much like the coexistence of positive, negative, and indifferent impressions that traverse the human mind. This intertwining dance of colors and forms echoes the paradoxical nature of life itself. Just as stalactites and stalagmites form over time in the depths of a cavern, so do the artist's beliefs crystallize within their consciousness. Among the vivid swirls, one cannot help but notice the occasional presence of thorny motifs. These sharp and intriguing elements remind us of the potential pain that accompanies profound thoughts and emotions. Like roses with thorns, our beliefs can bear both beauty and suffering. "For Me to Live Is..." challenges viewers to contemplate the essence of existence, the interplay of emotions, and the profound influence of our beliefs on our lives. It invites introspection and self-reflection as you ponder the significance of bleeding emotions—despair, angst, hope, and miraculous impossibilities— and the profound impact they hold.

I am an artist who believes in conveying emotions through bold and vibrant colours, using gestural motions and large brushes to engage with the canvas physically. My spontaneous and intuitive approach involves multiple layers, impasto techniques, and experimentation with various materials like charcoal and inks. Influenced by artists such as Karel Appel, Willem de Kooning, and Mark Rothko, my work embraces improvisation, emphasising the therapeutic power of art to convey joy and vitality. The core principles of expressiveness, spontaneity, and vibrant colours remain constant throughout my evolving techniques. My abstract creations are windows into a world of hope, joy, and life, serving as beacons of optimism in a world often filled with negativity and despair. They invite viewers to embrace life, find happiness in every moment, and smile in the face of adversity. Constant experimentation and evolution define my approach, and like Karel Appel, I believe in the therapeutic power of art, aiming to convey joy and vitality through my work.
