Saved energy from holding back Painting

My paintings could be characterised as mindscapes as my creative process is related to the peculiarities of the inner world rather than the outer one. A mind is a place where everything tangible happens. Various series correspond to different aspects of inner experience. Some pieces may evoke a terrain, a movement, an alteration and commotion, others stillness and quietude. They all pertain to something human, without explicitly portraying the human figure.  Optimism is brave. It’s the fight for a cause as opposed to the fight against something. A focus on the functional, sane, harmonious, balanced, profound. I strive to add a hint of this optimism to my paintings while allowing them to be a colourful equivalent to playing a musical instrument, writing a poem, dancing to the rhythm, or having a conversation with an interesting person.
