No.972 "Midnight Storm" Painting

For me, painting is not about what it expresses, but how it is painted. In fact, without any sketch, I get caught up in emotional impulses and paint immediately on the canvas. I think of the structure of the immersive whole, but I express the parts through instant intuition and accidental repetition of the layers. I repeat until I identify myself with a scene imaged in me. I’m not interested in seeing and painting something and I‘m interested in forming the image inside me. I always contemplate nature, colors, and human emotions. It's most rewarding when, after completing a painting, I can't quite figure out how I did it. The thrill of being immersed to the point of not knowing exactly what happened, the effortless naturalness without any incompatibility, surpasses the sense of accomplishment from a meticulously calculated process. No matter how beautifully decorated a place may be, it cannot compare to the awe-inspiring presence of nature.
