STATEMENT

My paintings are a mix of the dream and waking states. As much as I want to portray reality, portraiture, landscape, interior, I am always lured by the dream imagery that haunts me... My paintings are about telling a story, but they always remain mysterious, not all the answers solved, because that is my view of life.
