ARTIST STATEMENT
Art has become my freedom the moment I was challenged by my own usual identity when it comes to my work. I stretch it first with colored pencil, pen and ink and even paper cutting before I paint it on a canvas to finalized, It's always a careful study of images and compositions, a process of imagination of combining contemporary and traditional style.
