“I often ask my paintings whether they dreamed me into existence or if it is the other way around. We live together and yet we are alone, both following path and bearing

our own destiny. They step into infinity without any reason and do not return. Thinking while they go, listening to their footsteps as they echo in the silence, an immense

silence in an endless abyss. Where are they going? They struggle for life but cannot change their destiny except through the intervention of a miracle… perhaps they wait for a promise of happiness to come.”

To create my artworks give me memorable moments. The paintings and myself share our innermost compassion. To me, imagination which has kind of strange power is

always more interesting than reality. Perhaps, it is a world of my own, those beautiful landscapes are mine or because I am living in the world of landscapes. They reveal a

vigorous strength of life, natural, no purpose, serene yet lonely.

Spring, summer, autumn, winter then spring again. I wallow myself in forests, flowers where life is vibrant the most at every moment. There, I sense the beauty of nature

atrue friend who never asks for anything else than exposing its purifying beauty.
