I love to experiment with new techniques to create a wide range of imagery, figurative and abstract, aiming to represent my take on nature’s colors, form and movement. Memories of places I visited around the world determine the depictions of landscapes and other abstract themes. 

I’m currently focusing on monotype printmaking, a process characterized by spontaneity, which allows me to be unselfconscious and unconstrained. The paint captures the stroke’s dance across the canvas, telling a story that is then interpreted through the viewer’s lens.

I work on a smooth, non-absorbent surface, made out of aluminum. A subtractive image is created by inking the surface of the metal plate with oil based etching inks and then shaping the ink with rugs, brushes, scrapers or squeegees. The image is transferred onto a sheet of paper using a printing press, destroying the original artwork and creating one single print. Hence the name Monotype.

The personal nature of the monotype suited experimental artists from Camille Pissarro, Edgar Degas, to Pablo Picasso. These artists used the monotype process in unorthodox ways. Their artworks inspire my own.

My monotype paintings are insinuations of landscapes and horizons from distant memories. The compositions, which are inspired by my fascination with nature’s form and movement, have an organic feel and convey serenity, tranquility and at times, a powerful dynamism. My painting process is an experimental approach. With the handling of the oil ink on a smooth aluminum plate a pictorial expression emerges. Each piece explores light, contrast and texture with colors melding as the inks get carved into the canvas. Works create a space for dialogue with the viewer that tell a story which is then interpreted through the viewer’s own perspective and emotions.
