I get a great deal of satisfaction when my paintings evoke memories and feelings that I can’t help it but have my work being influenced by colour, process, texture and narrative content to make this happen.
I love it when my art that makes people smile, stare, intrigues or challenges them, art that occupies their mind and unconscious. Lots of my work is nostalgic. I believe nostalgia one of the feelings that makes us move. Nostalgia may be anchored in the past but with a positive trajectory into the future. We want to repeat what makes us happy and we feel happy by feeling nostalgic.
I use themes, colours, process or texture to unveil peoples’ feelings or memories who look at my art to feel or remember something. Art has the potential to fuel the imagination and evokes feelings of strength to undertake, otherwise, challenging tasks. I am a strong believer of owning art is important to our psychological well-being. Having an artwork that brings up feelings to the surface is like a manual for your emotional world. You can always go back and find yourself. Artwork can make something you have to say very clear without you having to say it. It can stimulate your emotions and you brain. Artwork can be very important in a person’s life.
