1st winner

I paint because I have the urge to express my feelings, intuitions, emotions and perceptions, in a way that is understood and upheld at first glance. Painting/creating is an essential part of my life. Is it because I have been around ART since birth? My Father and my brother,   have been/are full flesh artists.

My ART continues to revolve around the beauty that I find everywhere. And I don’t mean “Beauty” in a literal way, this beauty can be as intangible as just a mere thought or an idea, and still be an integral part of a composition. I find beauty and inspiration. Objects that have been tarnished with charm, with emotions, with stories, and with freedom. I say freedom because these objects give me hundreds of ideas for creations and I can place them anywhere I need them.

Although I am artistically classic, I do like to explore with other approaches, but reinvesting in the tradition of realism. Color and contrast are very important to me, they give me the volume and strength that am looking for. I breathe, think, dream, digest and live ART and I want to share my passion for ART with everyone by creating the very best that I can offer 。
