Artist statement
Architect, art, history and paintings fascinate me since I was chilled.
Maybe that was a reason behind my love to travel to see more of the world, civilizations, Art and Museums.
I enjoy expressing my self through my art and paintings. For me painting is not only for decoration . I consider painting as the best way to express feeling, opinion and describe history.
My love to art and history in addition to world events inspire me to start a new painting, that should reflect my emotions, philosophy and response to this incident.
By looking to my paintings you might be able to recognize some of their elements but not the whole picture. The reason is, I make a mixture of existing elements from the history and the real world which I mix with my imagination and ideas to create a whole story in a colorful painting.
