Colors as a potpourri of innumerable possibilities to control sensations. The canvas is my own microcosm on which the colors can unfold to their full potential, like medicine.

Again and again I am amazed at the powerful effect a picture brings into a room and changes the atmosphere of the entire room. I believe that everyone is intuitively drawn to the images that are best for their wellbeing.

There is a great love for people and their nature in my pictures. I would like to reproduce the freedom that painting gives me with my pictures to the world.
