Artist Statement: My art work is influenced by my various experiences of travel and study in Europe, Scandinavia, N. Africa and a few Asian countries. I have also lived for more than 10 years in each of the following countries : India, Australia and Mexico . I did my schooling in India , then studied for my Associates in Engineering at Manipal Institute of Technology, Manipal, before immigrating to Australia in Jan 1971. The following year I got my Australian citizenship. I lived in Australia for 15 years working for the Department of Defense in Sydney. Later, I went to live in Mexico for 14 years where I was in business for myself. I decided to come to USA in Feb 2001, to start a family & to live here permanently with my 4 daughters. My paintings depict an eclectic mix of myriad colors & precisely drawn shapes. They burst out with life, vitality and excitement. They are a joy to behold and uplifting to the spirit.. A lot of the colors I use are borrowed from the Mexican culture and folklore. The color panels are interwoven to give a more organic, wholesome, but modern touch to the art work. My work is presented to you for your visual enjoyment. Creswell D'sylva
