About The Artwork
The first mourning is a painting that required 2 months of painting. I used real models for this tragic moment in our history. This painting represents the moment when Adam and Eve found their dead son, Abel. The story depicted in the Bible (Genesis) tells us that Cain killed his brother Abel. I tried to imagine the sorrow and the deep feelings of loss that occurred for the first time in history. Eve is inconsolable and tries to clutch her son’s hand for the last time whilst she rests her head in her left hand. Adam tries to comfort Eve but cannot contain his own sorrow. He supports his son’s head and gently cuddles his wife Eve. The nature is resonating to their tragedy and seems to be frozen. The fog on the river is hardly noticeable and the dim light adds a dark hint to their drama.

United Kingdom
As an artist and a doctor I paint about the construction of the human perception which is bombarded with a multitude of stimuli, technology, visual and senatorial information. I paint our perceptions in multiple layers evoking the way we experience the world and how we use our senses to become aware of others, of objects, of relationships. In my paintings I capture moments of the perception process. Through perception we are able to identify and respond to environmental stimuli, to people, to nature. We use perception to communicate with others and I paint glimpses of our perception. I have been painting for 39 years and the media I use is acrylics on canvas and boards.
