"I view my art as a visual diary of my life. To paint is my way of analysing and understanding the world.
 My themes are always derived from everyday experiences and impressions. Inmy paintings I explore topics like movement, energy, contrast and the mystery of
emotions. I am interested in how they interconnect into body language as the true
expression of the individual."
